    Work being a bit sporadic right now has some major downsides, but sometimes some there's upsides, Like being able to sit outside in the sun sanding a guitar on a tuesday morning.

    I remembered to look for glue spots this time. Found a couple of obvious ones on the face and got rid of them

    Are the darker patches just below the binding also caused by glue? If so, sanding and sanding doesn't seem to remove them and I'm a bit hesitant to use Goof Off so close to the plastic binding.



    Also, I thought that the cap was solid ash. Apparently not, looks like it's thin-ish ash veneer over... baswood? Or something? It looks like I've sanded through the veneer right at the front of the bottom of the neck pocket. No biggie, it's gonna be pretty black there anyway so it probably won't show much if at all. Am I right about this? To me, it looks like you can clearly see the ash/something/ash-veneer in this image.
