Thanks to everyone for their input. I ended up getting lucky. After using a hairdryer to remove the pickguard, there was very little residue left on the guitar. What did remain came off with saliva as a solvent. Only the faintest hint of a tanline is all that remains to show there was ever a pick guard there to begin with.

Wd-40
I use WD-40. Spray it into a cotton ball,rub it on and let it sit for a bit. Clean up with alcohol.

So it's not like I grabbed my own personal bottle of Rosonol (which I keep under my pillow because it's very dear to me) and took a picture of it. I just looked for an image of the familiar blue and yellow bottle online and snagged one. Herringbone - using WD-40 on musical instruments might be okay if they're made out of brass, but it's never a good idea on a wooden instrument, especially not an acoustic instrument. There are all sorts of chemical additives in WD-40 that can react badly with guitar finishes, and if applied often enough and heavily enough, with the wood itself. It's a cumulative sort of thing. You can go years without noticing any adverse effects, but it's not a good idea to use it on your guitar. Hope this helps. Wade Hampton Miller |

So use Coleman "white gas". Very similar only different refining process. You'll get the same results. Afterwards you may have to wipe down to remove any residue.

Ironically, I've had some Sonoma County sauvignon blancs that resembled lighter fluid—but overall, most were pretty darn good.

"Hydrotreated Light Naptha"... is that chemist-speak for "watered down"?
