Just got my KV4 back from being painted and needless to say I am absolutely pleased with the final result. The Platinum finish on the guitar was way to dull looking and it had multiple dings & scratches with a small part of the tip of the wing had been broken and was horribly re-glued. I have been waiting for this for 4 weeks, (1 week shipping, 2 weeks painting and 1 week shipping back). It also received all new hardware (except for the nut, had to put on the old, new one needs shims) and a brass block from Keith (hoockey on ebay) and new cavity plates from Dave @ FOTN including a custom made one for the pot/switch cavity. The old factory one didn't fit to my likings. Of course it being a neck-thru guitar I had to furnish a new Jackson logo, so the headstock had to be level and filled with clear to accommodate for the thickness of the decal. I even had the bevels painted black just to give the guitar some more kick and to break up the flake a bit. I think the guitar turned out excellent. Here are some pics of it, which really don't do it justice. As soon as I set the guitar outside after assembling all morning it just lit up like a Christmas tree with blue, red, white sparkles just hitting you in the face like a hammer.. I almost had to come back in and get my sunglasses!
Congrats.
