Thanks for the stickers--awesome.

I'm thinking about the Wolf sticker for my Tele. Anyone know if I change my mind down the road and try remove it, will I have little Wolf parts forever stuck to the finish?

What's the finish?

Try Goo Gone. I've used it on various types of wood furniture without a problem.

Using a little heat while removing stickers helps a lot, too... about a hair-dryer on high is as hot as I'd go on a guitar, or a heat gun on low.

As far as long-term effects... it might leave an outline, especially if it's a Nitro finish vs. Poly, and if it sees a lot of sunlight.

Good question, and I have no idea. It's an American Series Tele from 2004.

I would be afraid goo remover would take off the finish. That stuff will take the skin off your hand if you let it.

Most likely it's a urethane finish. Theoretically if your guitar isn't exposed to massive lighting and kept in a case, etc, etc it should come off just fine with a blow dryer.

All that said, I still wouldn't put it on my axe

Almost certainly a Polyurethane finish as S6 said.

Goo Gone adhesive remover as suggested above will absolutely not harm Fender's famously thick and hard (that's what she said) Poly finish. It's a great product, most drugstores will have it, plus any Home Depot, etc. It's yellow-orange, comes in a clear bottle, and smells kind of citrusy.

Thanks guys.

Crappy Day at work.

Checked the mail and saw Thomas' envelope.

Instant SMILE.... crisis over.

Thanks Thomas.

I just got mine, it made my day. You are a kind person, Thanks Thomas!!!!!
