Guitar Paint Jobs

[Neaver]

Hi all, I'm looking into buying a new guitar and would like to know if anyone knows of any companies that can do the custom paint jobs. I'm not too sure about doing it myself and don't know if any of the music stores near me would do it.

Also, on Youtube.com, search Showbiz and there's a video where Matt has this like top hat that looks like it has been crushed. What is the spinny thing on his guitar cause I want to add something unusual to my gear. It doesn't have to be that so if anyone has any ideas about unusual things I could add just for some banter please share it with me.

i was thinking of getting a guitar chromed, but then i rememberd i dont have £300 to spare.

shame tbh. :LOL:

Oh by the way, I thought Iceman's were like £400. Got no idea why they're like £200 here. Anyway got any info. Also, did anyone have any cool ideas about things I could add to my guitar like the spinner thing.

attach a fireworks dispenser with automatic lighting mechanism just below the bridge so you can shoot people in the crowd you dont like.

if you cant think of something to put on it yourself, its probably not worth getting it put there :LOL:

Haha the hamster. Brilliant! Oh I noticed it's the ICX220 only. That darn website is showing IC400 even though it says ICX220. Damn. Either way I still need a new guitar.:)

Of course for paint jobs on a guitar you could also try your nearest car spray shop.... a friend of mine took one of his guitars to a place near us, they did a brilliant job with it (though I expect they will only do solid colours).

Yeah was really wanting like a unique design kinda thing. I've been thinking of ideas and got some but it's hard to describe. If I ever get my design on a guitar I shall post a picture:)

motorbike sprayers normally have brighter & more funky colours

When have you ever seen a green guitar?

It'd be unique.

I know a great UK company CustomSprayShop.com (http://www.customsprayshop.com) they are fairly new I think but they are spraying my explorer up in signal green with a signal yellow radiation symbol comming from the bridge pickup, you know like those zak wilde bullseye thingys. I can't wait til its finished :D I'll have to post a pic!

you could try some kind of lighting,it's cheap and relatively easy to do

i think that cost me a fiver,just bought an LED and 9V battery socket from maplins
the battery is in the cavity under the dials and the wires run through the rout for the pickup wires...
