Would be cool to have a unique finish on one of your axes, and the swirl thing looks awesome. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I dismantle them for him, he swirls them and then laquers and polishes them and I reassemble them for him. Next year he's talking of doing a range of Stomp Boxes too, like the Jemeni!!!

That video looks a lot easier than it actually is though If I would be doing it, I would probably try to find someone who has already done it on guitars in the past or as LiveOASIS mentioned, buy a guitar already treated - this allows me to choose the final look and everything.

Next year he's talking of doing a range of Stomp Boxes too, like the Jemeni!!! That pedal is so cool . I would love to dismantle guitars and re assemble them.I was thinking of buying a already swirled body and buying the rest of the parts for the guitar.Although I was adding the cost up of it all and it will be really expensive.I also would have to pay someone to put it together QUOTE (Bogdan Radovic @ Dec 26 2013, 04:08 PM) Yeah - those swirl guitars look awesome!

Yeah Bogdan I think it will be a lot trickier to do aswell. I would love to buy cheap materials and experiment with it to see what I could do QUOTE (Ben Higgins @ Dec 26 2013, 06:07 PM) I thought this was going to be a thread about spinning your guitar around and catching it again. Hahahaha. I will try it and upload some pictures for you Ben of my smashed up guitar You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
