Thanks for the advice, that's what I've done, with finest grade wire wool and

it's taken the unwanted shine off. Much better, Cheers

Hi, I have a Tokai FA70, hollowbody archtop guitar, copy of ES175.

It plays and sounds great but the varnish is very shiny and makes the body

look more banana yellow than natural wood.

I'd appreciate any advice on the pros and cons of sanding the finish completely

off and getting back to the wood.

How will this affect the sound? (if at all)

What are the dis-advantages of having a guitar with no varnish at all, just plain wood?

Many thanks
