Very nice! I like the purple finish. How did you get the texture look to it?

Luis, those are some awesome guitars. How did you do the finish on the purple one? And either you have really color corrected the photos or you've been getting rain. Monsoons come late this year?

For the purple one, I used a paint called Marbilzer, by House of Kolor. You spray it on, And then apply saran wrap, and rub a pattern into it. Then you just pull it up, and it leaves the pattern.
I must say though, It was supposed to be blood red, but do to a bad color chip by HOK, I thought Wild cherry was red, not purple.

Color corrected? Nope, not at all. Only editing i did was rotate them becuase they were sideways. My grass is always green. Will be until like november or something.

hey man i really like your headstock style, having the different thicknesses like that really adds a cool element to it. i dont know if thats something you came up with or if its just something i have never seen before but in either case i dig it [:Y:]

Thanks!
But no, thats not my own doing. I copied Ken Lawrence. Google some of his stuff. The explorer in the original post is replica of one of his.

Hi buddy! It seems that we're BOTH a little fed up with PG, huh.
