Members hangwire Posted January 23, 2011 Members Share Posted January 23, 2011 here are just a few of my upcoming projects: going to reshape the lower left horn definitely closer to a jazzmaster, maybe the lower right as well unless I want to keep it as a homage to that one weird fender prototype... I am toying with the idea of also painting the headstock to match... I have so very similar blue from a past project. also was thinking a copper colored pickguard would look nice with the blue... and I have copper paint [see below] so can you just prime/paint/clearcoat a pickguard? or... does it not "hold" onto the material and look bad??? thoughts? another of these SX that I got in a trade for cheap. again, looking to cut the body to more of a jazzmaster shape. The paint has a bit of sparkle to it... so I think that leftover red jazzmaster pickguard will have to wait for a different project... I have a blank of darker tort pickguard that I can just use the ^ blue one to cut out a matching one. dano clone.... the copper paint referenced above is for this... I am going to paint the body front and headstock front when the weather gets at least 55 outside... so probably april... if it comes out bad, I am going to just stickerbomb it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lolque? Posted January 24, 2011 Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 A buddy of mine works at a autobody paint shop, and painted a pickguard black for my pbass. Came out really nice . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hangwire Posted January 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2011 ^ yup, thanks! So thoughts? Trim both lower horns, or keep the lower right one as a swinger homage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
