I have a Coronado Antigua that is now antique yellow except for the pick guard which is still white. Is there any way to bring the guitar back to white or should I try to match the pick guard to it.
Thanks!

The aging of the finish you describe is considered desirable in many circles, I would leave it just as is.

That is a beautiful Guitar. Mine looks exactly like that except my pick guard is still white. It's totally stock except I put a stop on the whammy bar because it was almost impossible to tune without it using light gauge strings. It plays great but on small stages where you can't get away from your amp you get some feed-back.

Mine too is totally stock. I had never experienced any issue with tuning, I guess because I always used light gauge strings. I have not not played with any group in years, but don't recall issues with feedback. Though I've read in numerous places that was a fundamental issue with these.
