Members danswon Posted October 11, 2012 Members Share Posted October 11, 2012 Wow, I don't normally like trans finishes and figured tops but that is very striking! Beautiful. JungleSwampBurst? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bernardo gui Posted October 11, 2012 Members Share Posted October 11, 2012 That Grey-Black guitar looks like my 1988 PRS Employee Guitar. BTW,SPLENDID JOB REFINISHING THAT AXE !!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members HanSolo Posted October 11, 2012 Members Share Posted October 11, 2012 That takes some ballz to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xrleroyx Posted October 11, 2012 Members Share Posted October 11, 2012 Two things: 1) That is beautiful. If I ever need to have a quilty/flamey guitar refinished, I hope you'll consider doing it. 2) You have some BALLS. Refinishing a $3,000 guitar takes some sack.

Members Bro Blue Posted October 12, 2012 Members Share Posted October 12, 2012 Ok, I clicked this expecting to see someone f-up a nice guitar. I was wrong. Very nice. Looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 3volved Posted October 12, 2012 Members Share Posted October 12, 2012 I've been gassing over a charcoal burst custom 24 for a while now...and I hate you OP. That thing is f*cking beautiful - massive improvement IMO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gdsmithtx Posted October 12, 2012 Members Share Posted October 12, 2012 Whoa! That takes huevos, bro. Tricky stuff -- like juggling while walking on a highwire -- but you totally pulled it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nicolasrivera Posted October 12, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 12, 2012 I love charcoal too, and that was my initial plan!, but then i changed to something more unique because i do not want to re paint her for at least 5 more years.

Members ACLONERANGER Posted October 12, 2012 Members Share Posted October 12, 2012 Is agree to say that it looks way better than the factory finish. The natural way it burst is fantastic. Great job ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members nicolasrivera Posted December 7, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 7, 2012 UPDATE: Just finished doing the back and sides and the "Brazilian Rosewood neck", of course it is not rosewood, but i managed to mix just the right amount of tints to reproduce that same look!!! love it. The natural wood color of the back and sides shows like its uneven, but once the clear coat is sprayed it will look even!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BydoEmpire Posted December 7, 2012 Members Share Posted December 7, 2012 Nice job! To be honest, I think I prefer the original color a bit, but I still dig what you did with it. Definitely stands out a bit more, but it's also not too gaudy. Very cool and congrats on the new finish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bjcarl Posted December 7, 2012 Members Share Posted December 7, 2012 Better you than me...if I tried that, it'd look like someone barfed all over a guitar. Really well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
