As long as it still plays fine, I'd say it's a good excuse for a refinish

Well then, you could just enamel paint red over the white dents in the guitar - as if it was bleeding from the wounds. Slap a couple bandaids on it, and you've got yourself quite the snazzy custom

Um... drop it a few more times. SRV, anyone?

Seriously, my 7620's taken some abuse over the years, and it's growing on me more and more with each new chip.

Man if i were you i would take a router and put a nice rounded edge on that baby, right between a js and jem. I have always wanted to do that but didn't wanna alter my rg that much. That would get rid of the indentations and would look hella cool. Then after that do whatever you want with the color.
