Catpain Scarlet

After a bit of work with fine wet and dry and a polish up with brasso, it transpires it's a Coxx Classix.

Hey thanks for the info, and as you say, a nice project. I've been slowly removing the paint with fine wet and dry and it is woirking. I'll report back when I have it finished.

Hi newbie here looking to get back into playing guitar after 40 years :-) I bought this at auction for £40, it was covered in stickers, stringless, and tuning peg screws missing. It was labeled 'Tim Horth Custom semi-acoustic'. But clearly it's a rebadged something. Having given it a quick clean up it looks in pretty good nick. The machine head has been painted over, and apart from wondering the actual make and date of the guitar, I’m also looking for advice on how I might clean the paint off. Any ideas?
