I'd just leave it alone. It's part of the history of the instrument. And you know Paul himself wrote "TO JOHN" on it, so that must make it super awesome, right? Plus there's that squiggle under the name that goes through the P and R so it might look a bit weird if you take the name off. And then there's always a chance that you slip and eff up Paul's sig...

You could just sharpie the words out, at least then you can reverse it if the need ever arises
Well, I'm still trying to figure out the amount that it bothers me. How much do I really care that there is a signature on there? And how much do I really care that it says To JOHN? I honestly don't know. I had a guitar that had his signature on the back plate, it did nothing for value or anything, but it was cool! I think Garrett has it right, its kinda all or nothing.
Question about the PTC..would they remove ALL the paint from the back of the neck and give it a wood finish? Nice and silky smooth? What would something like that cost?
Just thought of something else too..what if I try to remove it and it doesn't quite get it off..leaving like a gold shadow..that would look terrible!
Yeah! I've got a 2nd gen Santana SE or a Tremonti SE I'll gladly send for a Custom 22. Neither one says To John anywhere.Quote:

So, if anything you should just help me get a collection of "To John" Custom 22s together.
Send it to PTC. Have them strip the back of the peg head,refinish it and have Paul sign it for you!! YAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
