Got a CCC with my John How Ladder Braced Concert and last summer I left my guitar in the case while on a long vacation, longest I've left the guitar in it's case, about 5 weeks. House was air conditioned, regular house temps, didn't get hot.
When I took it out the neck rest color had seeped into the neck. This was not a new guitar, it happened when the guitar was 3-4 years old. You can see the faint band of color around the back of the neck where it rested in the case and the interior color in the clear lacquer over the ivory binding.
I guess I should have mentioned it to John or Cedar Creek but honestly, once it happened, it was there. I wouldn't want the neck refinished, but it is a slight bummer. I'll have to put a piece of cotton tshirt over the neck rest if I leave the guitar in it's case that long again.
I'll take pictures and post them tomorrow.
