I just bought an older guitar, it was spray painted. There was a sticker on the body and when I pulled it off, there was a great faded creme color underneath with a clear coat. What would be the best way to strip the spray paint but leave the old creme finish on. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!

hm... if its a gloss lacquer clear coat you should be okay with a light duty stripper... i'm not sure what brands to recommend though. i'm sure if you go into a paint store they should be able to tell you specifics. but if its not a lacquer type finish it might be a little more tricky and the only way might be all or nothing... but i'm sure you can get it figured out if you go into a paint store or something like that and ask for assistance. spray paint is all that hard to get off... especially when its applied on a gloss finish with no primer.
