Body definitely poly

;looks like neck is too, so sanding or scraping is the way forward

Yes, urethane body and neck I reckon.
Sanding or scraping.
How handy are you?

I use these but you need to know how to sharpen/burr them otherwise it is a waste of time.
You also need a bit of technique with how you flex the scraper when scraping.
There is a technique to it and I don't think I'd suggest starting with an expensive neck like that.

if you want to put the time in it is a good skill to have- otherwise sand paper is your friend.

Thanks a lot - I appreciate it! I'm a total novice.

Would you consider handing it over to a professional?

Oh yeah for sure. It's just not possible currently.
