It's the back! You're probably the only one that ever sees it. Nobody can see it when you're on stage.

You could start taking your belt off. That would at least keep it from getting worse.
McGuire's (sp?) makes a polishing/finishing compound that supposedly will work on guitar finishes. Me, I just live with the mojo.

deal with it like a scar from when you did something really dumb.
but if that doesn't work. if they are light, GHS makes a semi-abbrassive polish that gets out SOME scratches, also, car polish works well, and that scratch repair stuff that you can get on the tv...
theres a slew of stuff, generally what works well on cars works on guitars (kw: generally!! motoroil, any thing that ends in "fluid", antifreeze, or an abundance of water is bad! bad bad bad! However, brake pads might make good mutes....
