    Removing tarnish / corrosion

    I hope this is the right place to post this. I just pulled out a guitar that I hardly ever use, the thought being to clean it up and sell it. Some of the hardware has a coating of tarnish on it, the tail piece being the worst. What is the best method to clean it, without scratching it or doing...

    HSS Strat

    Pick-up choice
