If there was enough glue on the tape originally it may stay down, although this may only prove to be a temporary fix. Sometimes it helps to put a soft cloth between your fingers and the guitar while rubbing. Keep up this pressing/rubbing motion until the tape cools a bit. While the tape is warming, begin pressing it down while at the same time rubbing it with your fingers. Try taking a blow dryer and heating the tape, being careful not to overheat and melt it.

On these newer Danos, inparticular the 59-DC first reissue, the problem with the side binding tape lifting or bubbling is usually caused by tape shrinkage due to changes in temperature and/or humidity.

Is there anyway I can repair this without cutting the tape or replacing it?Ī: On the vintage Danos the side binding tape was necessary to hide a seam in the body.
