I wasn't sure how to search for this so I'm posting this any way. If it's been discussed, please point me in the direction of the topic.
I remember reading some site about les pauls and the guy was saying that electric guitars shouldn't be coated in paint totally - there should be some bare wood on it, like in the control cavities and the trem route if it has one and pickup routes. The idea being that it allows the body to dry out and age.
Then I was watching a video about the EVH Wolfgang and EVH says at one point that it's got bare wood on it to let it age right.
So anyone have any opinions on this? The neck time I work on my guitar should I get out the dremel and get rid of the poly in the routes so my guitar will be better after I'm dead? :laughing7:
