Scott Rosenberger Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 It's starting to come together Holoflash is really hard to photograph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gw_guitars Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Hi Scott, I really like what I see. What kind of paint is it, it looks very difficult to work with. Holoflash is that a brand name? Is it something like that silver guitar Joe Satriani uses? Gerard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted May 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Holoflash it the name of the finish. Kramer did it originally and you can still get it on Spector Basses. as far as I know there are only about 6-8 people who do this finish and only 3 who do it correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Looks much Much better in real life I can almost understand the reasoning behind the black bass coat from an artist standpoint but I'm still wondering why nobody ever does the whole body using this finish.

vh-guitarstore.com Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 nobody ever wants to do a whole guitar in it, or any other color other than black.....the first guitar kramer did in it was actually sea foam green.....and andy timmons had a red background......originally we were going to do this in a white background, which i love.....but wait, this guitar isnt done yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhoads56 Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 So.... how is this finish done?? Details please!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted May 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 So.... how is this finish done?? Details please!! I'm sorry, I'm sworn to secrecy. If Doug wants to tell you how its done fine but I cant tell you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIIBOOMERIII Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Oh common I thought this board was for learning and education. Now we have secrets here. What is that?!?! I just joined this board and I am disappointed that such a thing would be said when we are all seeking information. What is the point of this board then?

I just joined this board and I am disappointed that such a thing would be said when we are all seeking information. What is the point of this board then? No secrets, it's like the couple of guys that do swirl finishes, they feed their families by doing these finishes. Sure, alot of people know how to swirl but not many know how to do it right. I'm not going to tell you how to do it and take money out of Doug's pocket. If he wants to tell, that's great but it's not my place to give out information that he trusted me with.

westhemann Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 keep your pants on it's a safe bet vh may share.but i don't blame scott for leaving the glory for doug.after all it IS his story to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAI6 Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 I'll speculate that it's a "material top". There is quite a selection of holographic designs available on adhesive vinyl (or whatever the base might be). I have actually played with the idea of buying some, and apply it to my axe..... Could look cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIIBOOMERIII Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 That would explain it being on just the top......you may be right RAI6. But, I guess we will never know....it's a secret and children gotta eat ya know. hahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vh-guitarstore.com Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 sorry guys, im keeping this to myself......its really not an issue of money, i actually only do a few of these each year...i want to keep it special and unique to a brand......its going to be featured a lot in the next few months on a particular brand of guitars making its debut in july......after that, i wont do any refinish jobs with it at all......of course, you can always go to a certain website that claims to specialize in it, however, they do it completely wrong........ good luck on figuring it out.....i went through this step by step with a professional painter and he still couldnt get it to come out.....if you think you have it figured out, email me with a pic and ill tell ya if its right or where you went wrong.....and maybe give you some hints along the way......but dont email me until youve tried one, and no PMs...those are a nightmare for me on a phone line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
