Malcolm Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I've stripped and primed my guitar body (Strat Style), any body have any ideas for a cool paintjob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Regular strat (white pickguard)? If not, candy orange or a marble style finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboh Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well... I know everyone probably has done it before ... but I'd say EVH stripe it. Its what i did with my strat, but then again try something out of the ordinary ... like swirling, looks cool and there was a froum on it with a video link ... looked like he used enamel paint maybe and put it in water then dipped the guitar in (never done it ... but i experimented on a popcicle stick hehe), or you could take then Zakk Wylde targets on his lespaul signature and put them on a strat. Anyways good luck, im eager to see what you do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Preston Swift Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 if it's grain"y" then i always thought staining or spraying a cool geometric design into it with one color and leaving the rest bare to make a contrast. ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 i ve decided to combine the idea of the candied orange with geometric designs and turning it into a candy orange gloss finish with a diamond of white stripes around the edge, ill have pictures when im finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiKro Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 I've stripped and primed my guitar body (Strat Style), any body have any ideas for a cool paintjob UHHH!!! Any color that suits you? I mean really, your asking a question that is about your guitar, not anyone elses???? You took the time to sand it. So now you have no clue what to do with it, what were you thinking? Let's see!! Follow the masses and you are KEWL!!!! Seriously, think for yourself and find something you want, not what others think. Then when you decide and are not sure how, then ask a quesions after reading some tutorials and searches on finishing. MK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
