Members Code-001 Posted July 5, 2006 Members Share Posted July 5, 2006 Anyone know where I can send my body to get refinished? I'm looking for some options. So far I know of:GMWLGMWarmothhttp://www.simscustomshop.com/ GMW is pretty expensive, LGM isn't taking any orders and I'm not sure about SCS (but they have great prices). I'm wanting to paint a guitar Pearl Redburst so it's not something I could do myself. I had Warmoth finish a guitar of mine and it was pretty good, but there were some parts that should have been filled better. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Members Funderbunk Posted July 5, 2006 Members Share Posted July 5, 2006 Does Warmoth do refinishing, or even finishing on raw bodies that don't come from them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heh, guess not: "WHAT DO WE PAINT? We only offer finishing services for the parts that we build here. We do not accept any other parts for finishing or refinishing." I had a custom Warmoth guitar built and I had them paint it. I assumed they did more than just their stuff, but I guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no guitar specific painters/luthiers local and I haven't found a paint shop that does work I like, or rather, I don't trust them enough since it'll be a guitar dear to me. I was hoping to get it painted like Pearl Redburst that EBMM offers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outter mongolia, I could see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if I have to, I'll spend the day looking for a place in the phone book across different counties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
