So I got a hand me down MK V-75. The thing sounds great, looks like sheet. I checked out the veneers on Parts Express and found it to be pretty affordable. My father in-law is a wood worker too, and has tons of experience doing this kind of stuff, so doing it right wont be an issue.
I wonder what the best approach would be to removing the old laminate. There seems to be some bubbling in the corners, water damage type, but no soft spots. I need to make this look attractive or my wife wants it gone!!
Thanks folks!
