Gentlemen, once again I thank you for your responses. Ed I appreciate the offer of Alcapolco however my itinerary takes me directly to Calgary (tomorrow) then to Vancouver that same evening. From Vancouver I fly the next morning to Portland Oregon for an undetermined time, then I may be flying to on Singapore (all work related) before flying back to Vancouver. I had a similar itinerary the last time I was in Bahia de Salchi (near Huatulco Mexico) with the guitar. I did not figure on leaving the guitar behind that long.
Mac, I agree a good instrument shouldn’t be left. This is a circa 1966 Harmony Sovereign Jumbo and although it is not the most expensive guitar in my stable it still has a beautiful sound and plays well. That is why it is my travel guitar. I was going to bring it home with me this time but unfortunately sudden changes in work arose that make it difficult to travel with it.
John I think I will try the following:
Wipe the strings with 3n1 oil, loosen the tension approximately a tone. Coat of wax
Lay saran wrap on the guitar where the plush was contacted the worse last time. Place in case.
Put a garbage bag over the case, if I can locate one!
Hopefully I will be returning in 6 months time, at which I will take the guitar back home with me and refinish it. The saga continues. Once again, thanks for the responses. D
