Answers: Apparently the person I bought this guitar from thought it would be a good idea to slap a sticker on the back of the neck... The goo makes it very difficult to play it obviously since its on the neck. Also, if anyone can tell me how to remove sticker goo of the body of the guitar? Not as interested in removal of the sticker goo from the body since it doesnt effect my playing. Any answers appreciated. Thanks.

i work at at the local music store and we get used guitars that i need to clean up all the time.

i'd recommend a bottle of stuff called "goo-gone". its kinda yellowish / orange and it smells like citrus fruits. it does a REALLY good job with that, just drop some on the sticky spot and rub it around with your finger and it'll come off.

i used it the other day to take a green day sticker off a guitar and a strip of velcro from the bottom of a vox wah pedal. it took less than 10 minutes for the both of them and you'd never know there was ever a sticker on there.

A little turpentine will do it. If you want something less toxic, goto office depot and there is a product called UNDO. It will undo the goo.

You can try fingernail polish remover without acetone or rubbing alcohol. But I would try them in an area where if some paint or something comes off it can't be seen. Try a small area first.

Start by trying a bit of olive oil or sewing machine oil. If this doesn't do it, you will need a stronger solvent. There is a commercial product called Goo Gone which may work.

i would say something specifically for guitar cleaning or wood and a soft microfiber cloth any thing else might damage the finish check out your local musician shop to see what they might have
