  1. Yeah, the thingis i plan to buy second hand parts, where can i look for more infomation on refinishing and repainting. I plan to get a body form a old gibson but the paint is knackered so i will need to redo that, and a epiphone neck, i want to change the logo on the neck, NOT the epiphone, there is a logo that says special 2 and i want to change that to Les Paul. How should i do that?
  2. Decided to re write what i was going to post, Ok plan is to buy an Gibson Les paul body and neck in black in the hope to make a black beauty.
