My sJ200 pickguard has started to lift at the edges.  What would be the best adhesive to reattatch? Will i knacker the finish and should i take it to a tech?

Thanks

    I would take it to a luthier. There is a real risk of damaging the finish, which would be very much more expensive to fix than it will be to pay someone who's experienced with this sort of thing.
