Re: FP to swirl opinions sought


If it's beat and yellowed, I'd say do it. Especially since you have the green vine neck, which as far as I'm concerned is the most valuable part in a potential project. I'd swirl it and just get the headstock refinished in black with the appropriate color logo.

Re: FP to swirl opinions sought


i'd say swirl it GMC, just like i did on mine.
but since you own 2 more FPs, i'd say keep it a nice FP trio, and play "tha hell out of that beat up" FP.
If you repair that FP, you'll have 3 mint guitars and you'll dont play them.
Guitars are meant to be played hard.

I have an FP that's pretty beat up, and I love it. It has lots of soul, I'm not afraid to touch it, definitely the one to bring to a gig, vs a mint condition one.
