I bought a Squier Pro Tone Fat Strat. The neck is messed up but I can't even get close to it for long because it reeks of cigarette smoke and I'm really allergic to cigs. I already took it apart and cleaned every bit with alcohol and then guitar wax. No good. I'm thinking Ozium and taking it to a luthier. I've never had to have any guitar set up before. I may just end up selling it to someone who is not allergic but it sounds amazing. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Monkey: I like that idea. I just might... I just might.
Don't use bleech or febreeze. Your guitars finish is porous, meaning it can absorb things, which is why it still smells. I would suggest removing the pickguard and cleaning the entire body with Naptha which is recommended for cleaning guitars. Give it a really good scrubbing the first time around and then let it sit in a well ventilated area for a day or so, and then give it another cleaning with the Naptha. After it dries, use a good Guitar Polish on it. Make sure you clean the pickup cavity out well.
You can use numerous things on the pickguard, that is non porous. Just try not to get the pickups wet. Naptha is also good for cleaning the metal parts of your guitar.
Try to only use products on your guitar that are recommended as to not ruin your guitar. You may wind up with a much bigger problem than a cigarette smoke scent on your guitar.
If you can't find Naptha (it may be at Home Depot or Loews), you should be able to use lighter fluid.
