One of the voices keeps screaming "WHY DON'T THEY HAVE PURPLE METALFLAKE?! WHY!??!!!"

Because Liberace died 23 years ago, and Elton John doesn't play guitar.
 
I kept trying to edit down that post to make it fit into a signature.

then the voice that cries out for glittery guitars was like "HEY MORON, JUST SCREEN CAP IT!"

So...

there it is.

Ta Dah.

Hehe! Well, I'm glad you enjoyed that so much. I'll probably pick up a few more "ignores" as the result of a comment like that. Figure about 10%, if the statisticians are right <grin>
 
Their Loss! I don't know why so many people cant take a joke. But I've never really had a problem with sharp witted acurate humor... that isn't mean spirited.

It also helps that my mindset is like "HAHA! PEOPLE WILL GO WTF IS THAT PURPLE GUITAR SO GLITTERY!" 
And not "This Purple guitar, it sees into my soul... it COMPLETES ME."

So... On my end the guitar is already a joke, and thats why I like it.  :party07:
 
Haha nice Cagey  :laughing7:
Yeah that is sharp witted acurate humour that isnt mean spirited like AGWAN said.
As much as i love purple, purple metalflake like that is pushing it a bit for me, unless we did a christmas gig  :laughing7: :toothy10:
Think that would be main time id use a purple metalflake bass.
Still nice though, but ill stick to my non sparkly purple goodness for now  :toothy12:

Well i always liked the holoflash spector do/did

I'm liking this for a pickguard shape.

the Neck side of it is pretty set, but the bridge end of it may be redrawn,

Now.
should I just cut it around a 720'd Fretboard. or would it still be better to put it under it?

I agree with your original idea: cover the whole thing with a pickguard - that is an awesome concept!

My reasons to like that idea is... if I wanted to change the guitars color... I just go have a new pickguard routed. In an afternoon I could turn a Purple Swirl Iceman into a Red Glitter Iceman.

Or I can cut a clear one. put a vinyl on the back of it and let the original color of the guitar shine through!

I do worry that a fullface pickguard will be hard to clean. and will age poorly. but it would mean I could top route it without it looking like a Telecaster!
 
gibson had a few models that they put whole-body-pickguards on a while back. can't remember the model name! i think they did an SG, LP, and maybe a V or explorer
 
Google searching that was not my friend.

I'm still planning this thing. probably will be for a few more months.

but does anyone have any comments on my pickguard shape?

If you think it looks like Donkey butt. feel free to tell me!

NEW Stupid Question...

Can you paint Oiled mahogany?

Not directly, but there are primer/sealers that will adhere to it, after which you can apply a pretty wide variety of finishes. The furniture refinishing folks talk about it quite a bit, as there's a lot of old fine furniture that was originally oiled and needs new a new finish. Google "finishing oiled wood" to get a bajillion hits.
