So I got the guitar yesterday. It's really nice except the previous owner left the pickguard cover on the pickguard and it almost melted to it and got a weird texture so it took forever to get that off. Then the sharpie.. I tried everything, rubbing alcohol to magic erasers. Nothing untill I used toothpaste. Yeah it's completely gone down but there's some scuffs in it from it so I'm gonna buy a pro kit I guess they are called to get it back to the former shine. Pics maybe later.

Thanks. It's cool cus if you look really close its got some kinda sparkle in the orange. Candy Apple orange or.. Candy Orange Orange... How does that work?

"Candy Orange Orange"! Nice surprise. And, whew, so much better without the autographs. What a deal you got.

Cheers,

Am I the only one who thinks that a nice tortoise pickguard would look good on everything? That's what I get for being colorblind, I guess.

"The only one...?" No way. Tort is my first option almost every time because I like both the organic vibe and the vintage look. Just put tort on my TV Yellow Les Paul Special and it looks like it was meant to be.

That's beautiful, I love the way it looks in orange. Sounds cool about the Candy Orange Orange too.

I love the pearl on the Orange. How does she sound?

I am glad the sharpie came off.

I didnt notice all these posts. She sounds good though. Only thing to do to it is fix the scuff marks :/ but everyone i showed it to never noticed it til i pointed them out so i might just leave em.

Love the orange. Lost a couple to snipers over the years. Probably for the best.
