February 15, 201214 yr wow thats awesome!!! i thought about mylo-ing up my keyboard, but its a bit risky
February 15, 201214 yr Unfortunately, I have nothing Mylo Xylotoed up :( But I do paint instruments/other things, and the Coldplay instruments have inspired me to paint my own. Hope you enjoy, and it's vaguely relevant, right? This is a keyboard I painted and gave a lid to. Obviously not Coldplay songs written on, they're from my band, Circuit Chase. The lights are Christmas lights I found but they're not attached. It was painted with acrylics. Again, not Mylo Xyloto, but a Viva La Vida guitar I did for my sister. Again, acrylic paint and pasted pictures. Not Coldplay related in the slightest, but this is the stand I use to put my synth on... Inspired by the fact the Coldplay synths look like they're on podiums, and designed with Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy live setting in mind. Again not Coldplay, but an Oasis guitar I did for a friend... Same method as above. And finally a guitar with the cover from Muse's Butterflies and Hurricanes single. Ordered a poster online and stuck it on.
February 15, 201214 yr those are all pretty sick :) does painting them affect the tone at all? If the surface of an acoustic guitar is shiny, it makes the sound worse, apparently. But considering the ones I got were £20 each, they sound pretty shite in the first place. Also, never paint the neck, and the fretboard if it's a nice guitar. Basically, all I'd say is don't paint an instrument that means a lot to you.
