How can I remove “ghosts” left by stickers from a vintage Gibson? And how can I remove the rest safely?

Really stuck on stickers on a vintage Gibson gutiar. Safe removal of remaining stickers without making more ghosts on it.
I did remove the ones I took off with oil, still leaves an outline of the sticker. It’s a beautiful gutiar, made in 1956 and the same model used by John lennon and Paul McCartney. I don’t have any car buffer stuff, do you think that will work if I buy some? Have you seen it work on something that old? I would really like to try and do it myself before I take it for restoration. Great answers though.

I recently came upon this beautiful vintage guitar. I got it from a friend who told me it was a Teisco from the 60s, but it doesn’t say anything on the guitar.

Anything you can tell me about this guitar would be great! Thanks!

here are a few pictures:

Vintage Les Paul Electric Guitar.Value?

Just me asked:


My sister found a vintage 1954 Les Paul guitar in a Gibson hard-shell case with faux fur lining, the guitar and case are in excellent to mint condition. Her boyfriend owns the storage container and received the guitar back in the 70′s on a trade deal for some auto work he did for this guy. He forgot the guitar was in this storage building until today when she was cleaning it out. How do you find out the value of this gem? They don’t have internet to do research so I told them I would try to find out.
No warping or fading
original knobs which were made that year for that specific guitar, strings…everything beautiful

My stepdad recently passed and me and my mom kept his vintage les paul..its a beautiful guitar and I want to make it shine so it looks nice. I could just go buy some guitar polish, but would regular lemon pledge make it shine without making the guitar less of value? and is there anything else i could use?
