this is sort of a repeat of my question about removing paint off a solid body guitar. my friend said that instead of sanding the paint off, i should just strip it with some stripping fluid. but he can't remember the kind that will not harm the wood of the guitar. can anybody recommend a good stripper? hehe.
once i strip the paint, i want to go further and do some mods on my les paul custom shaped guitar. i want to sand some wood off to give the body a forearm contour and maybe even a tummy cut. my question is when i apply new binding to the guitar, will it be able to follow the new guitar profile with the contours? or is binding only for "block" shaped guitars like les pauls and telecasters?
