I just finished doing a couple of wet sanding sessions with 1000 and 2000 grit using a large sandpaper cleaning pad as a semi-rigid caul, paying special attention to the areas around the bridge that have taken abuse. Things are looking much better but I did burn through the finish down to raw wood in the area. I'm afraid I'll have to spit refinish it.
On the bright side, the spots where I filled with Gluboost and steamed out some dings in other places with a clothes iron are evening out nicely.
