Nice looking guitar.
I'm curious....was the lettering and pin striping clear painted over or just sitting on top of the normal paint? I used to pinstripe for a living while in college and found that drain cleaner and a bit of elbow grease and clean cloth would usually get off any pinstriping or lettering that was done with standard lettering enamel. Old work would leave a bump from the chemical bonding with the original paint, but that could usually be blocked out, sanded and polished, just like a car.
Maybe this can help for the next guy who wins a guitar that's been "done up".
