Hi,
No the finish has now changed for the better. Gary is now using a shiny soft hide with loads of grain. I prefer the short lived type that was shiny and crusty with the red base coat, but that has gone forever. Here's a photo of the new one next to the older[red basecoat] type the new one has the lettering on it.

I would think that this jacket is now one of the best Gary has ever made.
