strummer2k Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 I just got a Guild Bluesbird off of Ebay (great gtr btw). Anyway, the binding is just starting to separate in a couple of places and I want to make sure it doesn't get any worse. The gap for the separation is like a 1/32 or maybe a bit larger. But it is definitely coming loose. Question: would regular binding glue from Stewmac or CA glue be better to fix this with. When I finished a recent project using the regular binding glue, I remember it being a bit messy to deal with and I absolutely do not want to wreck the looks of this guitar. That is why I was considering CA glue. I think it might be a bit easier to work into a small place like that. Also, any tips would be appreciated. I don't want this repair to be visible. Thanks.

Marzocchi705 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 CA sounds good to me, if its only a small area itl get in there better than binding glue id imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanKirk Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Stew-mac sells different thicknesses of glue (from water to honey in thickness). Maybe if you tried the very thin stuff you could get it where you wanted without making a mess on the finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
