I am refurbishing an old rectangular bass case to use for another
guitar. I'm at the point where I'm almost ready to put new vinyl on the
outside and new lining and padding on the inside. I know that I need to
have a smooth surface to glue the fabrics to, but is it important to
get every bit of the old glue off the wood, or can I just sand it
smooth and reglue. Most of the glue is gone, but there are a few spots,
particularly along the edges of the insides of the shell where it
curves, that have a pretty good glue accumulation. Thanks.
