I am really thinking of giving my first guitar, a strat copy, a custom paintjob, and by that I mean something cool like flames, a dragon, Kenpachi etc, etc. Has anyone tried this and did it turn out well? I would like to see some pictures if thats possible! laugh.gif Any advice would be handy too, like what type of paint and laquer to use. It would be cool to make a project out of this!

Nice paint but....what's that thing on the neck?? biggrin.gif wink.gif

Hey man, nice work at lights end! with what did you paint you neck. Does it stays there. Lot of paints just pilles off due to playing.


i used normal spray paint and then varnished over the whole thing to give it a protective layer.
