Poly finishes feel different than nitro finishes and they don't wear in like nitro.
Poly will look about the same 20 years from now with very little patina, wear or color change.
Oil finishes are thin and soft if applied correctly, they wear much quicker and generally need some maintenance with time depending on usage.

I didn't know about the FGN guitars. Great stuff, there, and unique, which I like.

They dont seem to have a USA distributor. Perhaps waiting on some non-compete clause in one of their old contracts to expire? Cause I do know they show their stuff at NAMM

It's an old established factory that's been building for the big brands for like 40 years now
