SubsonicSimpleton Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 Just a thought, but it might be worth disinfecting the cavivites and neck pocket with tea tree oil to kill any potential mould/spores. Looks like you got a nice result from the application of a bit of elbow grease though. Quote
Slappindabass Posted April 14, 2019 Author Posted April 14, 2019 I shall keep an eye on it. To be fair all the cavities looked pretty good. Quote

So, that Brexit delay is good for getting Japanese guitars to us in the UK then! Quote
Slappindabass Posted April 16, 2019 Author Posted April 16, 2019 They cost a bit to get here but they all seem to be good guitars. Obviously its a gamble. I have had one with a broken truss. But good with the bad. Quote
