I've pm'd a few people and I haven't gotten a response, so I figured I'd post a thread. you guys have seen what I plan to do with my future bass. I figured it'd be simple enough since it'd just consist of painting, masking, painting again, pulling off masking, clear coating. but, I know there are more steps than that. could someone help me with the steps involved and how you should go about painting a body from pulling it out of the package to just finishing up the final step? if there's a place I can read to help me understand, that would be very appreciated too. I may also use some high end spray paints since I don't have a full gun, and all. I have a big compressor in the garage, just don't have the gun available to me. is this going to be generally ok? or will it looks like SERIOUS scheisse?
