  1. i don't think this would be giving away any trade secrets when you swirl a guitar which method of applying paint do you use? (a)dip body in through paint and back out through paint(doublelayer) (b)dip body in through paint, blow away paint and make hole in surface, pull out avoiding second layer c)dip in without paint(avoiding 1st layer), apply paint, pull out through paint so it only gets 2nd layer Thanks
  2. yeah and the small leaf inlay on the side............ ........EXTRA 2 MILLION EASY!!!!
  3. if i owned it i'd refinish it probably too much trouble to fix each blemish and get it to look right is that what you meant?
  4. some are some aren't just depends how much time/effort/money you're willing to put in
  5. there are endless possibilities but basically you prep the guitar (sanding down, basecoat if you want....etc) then paint your design on then seal with usually a spray of some sort and after each layer of anything you would usually do some fine sanding to fix lumps, blemishes...etc but there are many others here who have way more experience then me
  6. ok i think i get the mylar stuff now now i understand it i realise i've seen it here and there before thanks for the tip bout removing the dots but i don't get what you mean about the brass tube exactly got a picture or something?

G'day! this just hit me a few minutes ago if i drill out the old screwhead inlays on my jem7dbk, get some new clear inlays, spray the underside with that chrome mylar stuff talked about here: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...=ST&f=10&t=1224 put new inlays in and tada! awesome 7dbk! i'll also add an extra dot on the 12th and 24th (3 dots for that alienish look) will this work ok? what are the clear inlay things made out of and how hard is it to drill out the old ones? thanks peoples!!

  18. "I emailed Hafler in search of a manual, first guy seemed pretty clueless, but I was soon emailed with the full manual in .pdf format." this was written in one of the HC reviews :ph34r: seems they aren't readily available til you contact them
