Body was badly scratched - but otherwise fine, so I've rubbed it down and waxed it, shileded the cavity, put on new strings and set it up - it's pretty darn good - even paying full price. It's selling to a mates daughter next week - another one rescuede from the trash!![/quote] why do I never find anything like that? What do you use to remove the scratches?

Then i waxed it mant times with beeswax - probably not the most enduring of finishes but it looks nice. Sold it on today, gonna deliver it later this afternoon - didn't make much on it but at least it's been rescued, and a new player will benefit from it.
