Etched Metal

What is Your Etching Process?

Our etching process is one that impacts the surface of a metal leaving a holographic type impression. It does not deeply engrave the part as those processes after time will start to rust on a plated metal. You can see the effect in our Etched Neckplates section.

What Materials Can Your Etch onto?

Chrome, Gold, Nickel and Stainless Steel parts give the best etching results. The parts must be 2 dimensional and smaller than 3" square. Neck Plates and Humbucker Covers work great.
