Thoughts/comments on this finish.


Recommended Posts

I made this rough sketch in photoshop. I'm in the midst of making a tele-style guitar and I wanted to make a ocean/surf-themed finish on it.

I'll probably do some inlay work inbetween the two pickups with some blue-colored pearl. I'll be using basswood for the body, so it'll look cleaner. I also plan on making a strat-style headstock. Anyway, if you have any cool ideas to add on, I'm completely open to suggestions.

Why don't you inlay a surfer riding a wave across the lower bout of the guitar in playing positon, and have the surfboard have the same materials pattern as the guitar. It could be really cool. Makes it seem like the guitar is made of the surfboard materials. :D
