I have no white nitro primer. I am changing my guitar body from a black to vintage white (more creamy than white). Both nitro paint. Can the below white shellac I already have be used between them to get a white surface in order to get a better spray over color for the vintage white? Is this even necessary? My goal is to keep the vintage white as light in shade as I can without the black affecting it.

As long as you're shooting nitro on nitro, there's no need for an intermediate barrier or primer. If it seems the vintage white isn't covering, it'll be because there isn't enough pigment in the new color coat to make it opaque. Solution is simple - add more pigment (or additional coats).
