I just got my new axe (Jackson Soloist SlSMG or whatever with the cool headstock) and the thing is amazing and plays great in every single way. It also smells like formaldehyde. Yes, the chemical used in preserving shit. Needless to say I've named it formaldehyde. Anyone else have any stories about weird ass smells coming from guitars?

actually, my jackson has a rather pleasant smell about it...can't quite place it, but it's nothing like formaldehyde; mine's smell is actually kinda sweet. maybe it's because it was made in the mid-90's, and has aged well

my electrics dont smell at all i think, but my acoustic that I sold not so long ago had some clear wood smell. Every time I smell it i get memories of when I started playing. Those were good times \m/

Yes. That guitar is fucking awesome, although it was tuned in C# when he got it and needs a truss-rod job. And it actually smells awesome.

its disgusting how easily smoke binds a guitar. I hate smoke smell, ever since I was little, it always gives me headache.
I should apply some vodka treatment to my V \m/
