truetone6 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I have a Gibson Les Paul hardshell case that has a red stain inside because it had a red Vintage Mahogany LP inside. If I put another Les Paul in that case,like a Studio 50's Tribute,will it pick up the stain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BentonC Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 That isn't normal. The color is underneath a layer of satin nitro lacquer. Have you applied anything to the guitar recently? I haven't run into that problem, but I would imagine that you'll want to keep other instruments away from that. If it rubbed off on the case, then you can't be certain it won't rub off on another guitar from the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocdman Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 My case looks the same. I also have a VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockstar232007 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Looks to me like "finish leak", which is cause by the lacquer (which has a yellow-ish tint to it) coming in contact with the case lining (kind of the point, I know). This is one reason I don't like cases with white lining, because they have the tendency to pick up EVERYTHING! I wouldn't really worry about it as far as the VM goes, but as Benton said, avoid putting another guitar in that case, especially a white one!

It has a poly finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
