I have bought my first Starfire. (Yes, it is fantastic and sounds great).
It's in good nick for its age, with the usual dinks and neck wear. I'll get a luthier to work on the nut & frets, but I'm keen to do other work myself.
Questions: what is the lacquer / varnish, and how should I patch it up (a few scars could be tidied up)?
Machine Heads; I'd like to replace the original Grovers with some new Sta-Tites. Good move, or is there anything better to be recommended?
Also, the face of the headstock is pealing off, and needs re-gluing: is there any specific glue that is preferred?
All opinions greatfully received.
