SweetEmotion Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I don't think that this topic has been covered anywhere else but I have searched around quite a bit and couldn't find anything. Basically, I love the look of flea's bass with the logos all over it and I really want to do the same to mine but I'm new to this and not sure how to go about it. Should I: 1. Buy some stickers and just stick them on, 2. Put stickers on and then cover them with lacquer 3. Print stuf off the net and use that instead of stickers My bass only cost me a hundred quid or so so I'm not too bothered about making a mess of it. If anyone has any idea how I should go about doing this (what laquer to use etc.) I would be grateful for any help. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikhailgtrski Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 This was discussed a couple of months ago. A search for "sticker" is all it took. sticker finish Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egdeltar Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I think putting any kind of finish over a sticker is beyond lame. Its a sticker!! Peel it off, stick new ones on! Get like a half inch thick layer of stickers after a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetEmotion Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Thanks mike, I do have one more question though... If i cover the front in stickers, do I have to lacquer the whole body or do I just do the front and sand along the join??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughes Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 ever heard of decoupage (sp?). its a method where you take photos from magazines, books, printouts etc and your use spray glue to put them on the guitar then you cover with laquer..do a search on google, lots of old ladies have craft sites that will help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
