~davie Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Hey guys, I just bought a guitar from the boutique yesterday. It seemed fine until I brought it home then cleaned up all the fingerprint/smudges. Then I noticed there's a paint blemish on the body. Its highly visible when light is shone on it. I have attached a picture: White circle in the middle is just lighting. The blemish is in some kind of 'L' shape. It think its underneath the paint. I cannot feel any texture from it when I touch it. Any way for me to fix it? I have until Monday to return it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prostheta Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 If the item you bought does not conform to contract then the onus is on the seller to fix the blemish, not you. I would push for a partial refund to the tune of a qualified repair techs job cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~davie Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 The guitar is used from a guitar pawn shop Here's the pic http://acapella.harmony-central.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=341006&d=1324172434 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WezV Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 try buffing it out with some compound, or just stop looking at it, it is a used guitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~davie Posted December 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thanks for the input guys. I don't think I can do much to the finish aside from refinishing it. I'm just going to ignore the paint blemish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Workingman Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 That's not a blemish; its mojo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonx Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 I agree with wes - I reckon with some compound and a orbital buffer that'll dissapear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
