Hello all I'm trying to touch up the color of my 360v64. Its in Sea Green (which is going to make it harder) luckily its a small chip. Anyone knowhow close to the Seafoam touch up pen this would be? (http://reranchstore.stores.yahoo.net/guitrertoucu.html).

Very rare guitar you have there! I wouldn't try to fix it. It's small enough of a chip that I think even at this point you can still only devalue the instrument.

Emory - I'd love to see some pictures of your v64. A rare guitar in that finish.

I too would not stress too much about a few chips. It just means it was played. :D

Don't sweat the chip. Touchups never work with a marker.

I would rather see wood than a blotchy touch up.

..and one sweet guitar!

Thanks All,

You have convinced me to leave the chip be.

I did send the guitar in for a setup so I could actually take it out and play it at a gig. Its currently meshing nicely with my Vibrolux Custom I'm excited to use it on stage it gets comments where ever I take it.

Model paint might work. I've used it before to touch up small chips or nicks on my various Rickenbackers.
