        I used to have a leather jacket when I was like 13 that had Master of Puppets airbrushed on it.

        I want a guitar painted silverburst. You should paint it silversparkle burst and send it to me!

          Silverburst? I'm not sure how that would tie in with the crosses.

          If I do a graphic scene, it would have to be something cool that would go with the crosses. MOP is good. Armored Saint? Saxon?

          What about crossed swords in white on a black body? A shield crest?

          Lava cracle burst (gates of doom theme)?

          In general, I'd like to do something really cool, original (not another tigerstripe), but something that would appeal to most people (unlike naked women that would appeal to a few).

            well of course i started thinking of my own wacky concept for your guitar (if it was mine) on the way home from work yesterday (it's a sickness.i know..ahahaha)

            started thinking about a Civil War type theme, with half the body done in Union blue and half in Confederate Grey( but with a jagged slanted line not a straight one )

            see the Demartini sword guitar in this thread but more jagged

            http://www.jcfonline.com/ubbthreads/...;page=0#432421



            with a ripped flag type of effect between the 2 sides and maybe a small graphic on each side or one in the middle

            with all the crosses up the fingerboard

            it's out there ,i know.. but i've never seen anything like that on a guitar before

              If that had a regular headstock, I would love to buy it, especially if it had the older Jackson ESQ style headstock, very cool. Jack.

                    That guitar needs St. vitus cathedral frontside painted on so that the towers point towards headstock. Gold hardware would be cool too.

                      Interesting. What would that look like?

                      I'm still trying to figure this out. If I go with solid black, it should be a no-brainer to paint. I'm just afraid black would be too boring and would get fingerprints too easily.

                      Also, I currently have black hardware. Would black/black look bad? Black and gold sound better.

                      The pickup will be either a single EMG81 or an OBL L500XL Made in West Germany (old).

                        Looks pretty cool man, deffinatly keep it!.

                        I'd say it would look great in either

                        Black with gold hardware

                        or

                        Dark Red with black hardware.

                        either would really set it off [img]/images/graemlins/drool2.gif[/img]

                          That MOP idea is great. That would be incredible.

                              REDRUM, end of story.

                              That thing is crying out for blood.

                              Either that, or the original Lynch Mr. Scary Graphic:

                              Sleep. The sound doesn't collapse to riffs of early eyes either.
