  • Custom guitar question

    I know this may sound dumb
    but I have been looking into the thought of a custom guitar
    and was wondering. So anything you think of they will do?
    Thinking mainly in the area of custom graphics for the body or custom inlays

          No, they won't do anything just as long as you pay. You can get creative with colors/electronics/bridges/wood, etc., but they do have body shape/inlay restrictions as it relates to guitars from other manufacturers.

            Yeah, you'll have to stick with the standard Jackson body styles, but other than that they will be willing to do most things you could ask for if you're willing to pay. In terms of custom inlays, they should do what you want as long as they think it is possible to physically do, and for finishes, one of the options on the order form is for customer supplied artwork. That will probably add a lot to the price, but they should be able to do most graphics.
            I like maple fretboards. :P

              Which post are you guys reading? He specifically states "mainly in the area of custom graphics for the body or custom inlays". Nothing about body shapes.


              Anyhoo, yes, as long as the artwork is not copyrighted (Mickey Mouse, RoadRunner, comic books, etc) OR if you can obtain the permi$$ion$ required, then you can have anything painted on it or carved out as inlays. That includes photographs, especially of celebrities.

                I thought his second post was broader in scope.
