My 1971 Mark VI (alto) has got little green speckles on its neck. I do not play my alto very much so it sits alot firmenting the little green specks.
The neck of VI has got little chips in the finish (which i created 30 some years ago with the "chain neck strap" that came with horn) which now over time have turned green.
I thought of getting the neck re-done, but the people I talked to said I should not, as it would de-value the originality of the horn, plus matching the dark (almost orange) color of the finish would be difficult. Is there something I can use to clean the neck, and get rid of the green, without hurting what finish IS left on the neck?
