tpurgatoryt Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Now on the epi les paul gt, it has a pickguard, but an odd one, it isnt held on like a regular les paul with a screw on the side, it is firmly on the body with no screws (the les paul gt is a flat body les paul). so does that mean it'd be held down with som sort of addhessive or glue? and would it be removable with minimal to no damage?

TWANG Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 If it's a flat body it could be adhesive. blow dryer used carefully let's you lift those off.. sometimes they just pry up but bend a little.. again the blow dryer and a couple of heavy books will bend them back. note.. when you get a warped guard you can fix it that way.. blow drying the back of it.. get it warm, then pressing it. I see guys get new guards for a little warp here and there when it can be fixed with just a bit of effort. Also screw holes.. they don't get them perfect at the factory.. they go in at an angle or they are off center a bit to start with.. but filling and redrilling is a good idea when you fix a warp as often that's what caused it. sorry got carried away. I haven't seen the gt but if there's no screws it has to have some adhesive I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
