I'm one of those players who don't like the stickyness of glossy necks. This can easily be cured, by breaking the surface of the paint. Sandpaper would remove the paint, but Scotch-Brite just roughens the surface, resulting in a satin-like finish. Here's how…
Although, I'd be worried that the wood is now unprotected and over time will result in the oils from your fingers and hand absorbing into the wood without having the protective finish on it. Unless you're not sanding all of it off and just scratching the gloss.
And those are the sexiest pants I've ever seen Jay.
I don't put another layer of laquer on. I just leave it the way it is. Because of sliding along the neck with the fretting hand, the roughened surface will more or less turn glossy again. the procedure can then be repeated. Each time only a few micron of paint comes off, so it'll take a lifetime (if not longer) to totally remove the paint.
