Custom Refin -- What are my choices

[GodWentPUNK]

I'm looking to have a refin done on one of my Charvel Model 3's. I have already talked to Lee but I would also like to know of other shops that are out there. Can anyone provide with a web address of places that I can contact.

thanks!

Try some auto painters/body shops in the area. Or, since you're in Lockport, you can try John Lynch at Dynamite Music in Griffith, IN.

Paul did the refin and mods for my (former) bullseye. The work was great.

A minor point, though - provide very explicit written directions on what you want. And then follow up with a phone conversation before he actually starts working on it. But, then again, that's good advice no matter who you have do the work.

Are you looking for solid colors or gfx?

There's also Shadoe at Beyond Custom, and that Daneen chick that painted the ButtloadOfSkulls on Chuk's old Custom Warrior [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I was thinking about this one Sample Graphic but the price is higher that what I want to spend. I'm now thinking about the 'glow-in-the-dark'.

I do remember the deanne girl--I think I'll contact her next.

Who's this person? Is she local? I've got a Model 3A that I want to have re-finned myself. (just in a solid color, the same as it is now)

I have one in Burgundy Mist and the newest one is metallic white (which I want refinished). I don't have pictures on my website of these (reminder to self: get web updated).

A single hum, v-trem, San Dimas style strat body, one piece maple. He is doing a red cellophane finish to match my NOS red Dimarzio neck which I sent to him to match color. Let me know how the project is coming if you get a chance to see it. Thanks [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
