What are your thoughts on whether or not to refin a lead 1 with a bad paint job? Also, thoughts on this guitar in general?

First off, Welcome to the forums.
Post a pic if you can.
If your really don't like the paint I say do it.
If you plan on keeping it for the asthetic value or selling it later, keep it original. 8)

I'd keep it original simply for resale value. If you never plan on selling it - go for it. It's your guitar 8)

Thanks for the welcome. I do eventually expect to sell the guitar, I guess my real question is (and it probably is just a judgement call), since the Lead 1 family have such bad problems with finish in general, do they really fall into the usual axiom of leave it as made? I'll post a pic when I get a chance.
