Trans-blue isn't automatically epic fail, just usually.
Funny thing, I just inherited a guitar and I've got some options to buy a couple busted guitars for cheap. One of them is a hagstrom:

Looks like the inside is a bit rusty. Could you guys take a look and LMK if you think that's fixable. I'm sure the memphis is, but would there be any problem cleaning out the rust inside the Hogstram? I'd love to fix it up.
Thanks guys.

Oh, so you think that's actually just the wood showing through where the paint's coming off inside? Maybe it's a darker wood or something. I just assumed it was rust cuz I also saw similar color red stuff at the base of the knobs but maybe that's just the way they look. I've never seen the inside of an electric look like that, but I guess it could just be paint coming off the wood.timhulio wrote:There's no rust inside it. Wood and paint don't rust. Are you sure you don't mean the shielding? Photo it and post it here, there's a wealth of experience with old Hags on this forum.
If I still don't know when I get it, I'll post some closeup picks. Either way it's rockin' tho. I can't wait to fix that bad-boy up.

The new Hagstroms are quite cool starting points for projects, especially with all the factory seconds flooding ebay...

Damn I wish i knew what brand of paint he used. It's from the same place where they painted a vintage Hagstrom in the same color purple, in Upstate NY.timhulio wrote:The new Hagstroms are quite cool starting points for projects, especially with all the factory seconds flooding ebay...

The purple is great, way better than the reddish junk Fender used on the J Mascis Jazzmaster.

You were right... it's just wood dust and where paint's come off. I posted pics in a new topic of it.timhulio wrote:There's no rust inside it. Wood and paint don't rust. Are you sure you don't mean the shielding? Photo it and post it here, there's a wealth of experience with old Hags on this forum.
