1934 L00 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 The top section of the armrest on the '93 GCG I just bought was lifting from the base at one end - the adhesive was not holding but it almost looks like someone tried to reglue it at some point. Can anyone tell me how the armrest was originally attached to the mounting pad? I was able to get it off completely and clean all adhesive residue, then re-mount it using a few small dots of silicone adhesive. There were two small pins on the top piece that align with two holes in the bottom section - which is mounted to the guitar body with two screws. The pins could not reach the holes unless the top is mounted right on the base but I question if this would have been mounted permanently or removable for cleaning.

Dave F Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I have an '05. I cannot see that it was made to be removed for cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two alignment pins are too short to allow anything but a thin layer of adhesive. the RTV sealant is holding well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
