You need the Welsh paint wizard! I don't know if Rich would fix a ding and repaint but he'd be worth whatsapping to see. Ballpark for an entire Les Paul paint job (from bare wood, sanded to 240 grit) is c200-250 plus postage. A telecaster body is about half that. He's incredible value.
I'll pm you his phone number.

Wotcher all. Looks like there are a fair few people who know about guitar building/repair on this thread. I wonder if there's a forum 'go-to' for refinishing? I've an early 80s JV Strat that an ex-girlfriend put a ding in a while ago and have been meaning to get it fixed for ages. It's tobacco sunburst, so might be a bit tricky (yes, the ding is in the colour bleed bit), but I wondered if anyone round here does that kind of repair and, if so, what kind of ballpark cost it would be.
Cheers.
