Stopped in to see Jerry today & pick a while. He was almost comatose from meds & it took about 45 minutes for him to come to. Nursing homes are pretty sad places.
He was cryin the blues, seems he was getting ready to go out & sing at a wedding a few days ago & spilled after shave on old Midnite the black D 25.
Don't know what's in aftershave but it does eat Guild finish, didn't go thru to the wood, only because Jerry saw it in time & wiped it off. Sure did etch the top layer of finish. Isn't really too bad but it's right on top opposite the pickguard.
Maybe a little polishing compound will buff it out, then again it might just polish it right thru to the bare wood. Bare wood would sure enough show up on a jet black top.
