The Way of Relic

Squier Vintage Modified SSS Strat

 
Part2 : AGHHH!

OH NO!!!


What's the matter?
I used a heat gun to remove the finish and some areas on the top part of the wood started to bubble up ! They didn't apply enough glue to attach the lamination wood!
I think I will have to take off ALL of the lamination.
So if you keep applying the heat gun, wouldn't you be able to remove all of the laminate wood easily?
I tried that already but it didn't work.  There are some areas that have glued together really strong.  So the guitar now looks so weird with stupid bumpy surface.  I can't even use a planer at this point.
So then, what are you going to do?
The only thing I can do is to use a file to remove all the lamination woods. Removing the polyurethane and polyester alone requires intensive manual labor so it gonna be a crazy amount of work.
Man, I think I'm gonna faint......so much work!
Don't you think buying cheap guitars just gives you more problems?  Is there any value to spend so much time and effort in creating a relic replica using cheap guitars?
Ah...I....I can't be wrong. If I concentrate and focus enough, it will get done rather quickly. No problem!
What do you mean when you say "rather quickly" ?

Maybe just about 10 hours?
(No way, this guy can't do it.)
