MX self-made stuff

I made some sort of a MX customized guitar last summer... I'm not really good at painting and stuff but I'm pretty content about the result. Here it is:

It isn't really playable, so I decided to put some LEDs behind the guitar and hang it on my wall. So this is the final result:

I like the neck and the headstock -- but it seems too plain everywhere else.

 

That said: this is 1,000x better than anything I could do. Looks great. :)

First you have to find your artwork.if you want to print it 15*15 cm, it have to be bigger than 1000*1000 pixels .

 

Then give

That artwork to a photography shop or like that to print it whit high quality.

 

And my panel was MDF.....

Hey Guys,

 

I know this has been inactive for a few months but I really reallyyyy want to 'MX' my Acoustic guitar, I know it will affect its sound slightly but I don't care! Haha!

 

Is there any tips you guys have got for me please? Anything will be most grateful! (Particularly the method in how to do it haha :D)

 

Thanks!!

 

Danny :)

Whatever full color you do for the background, will have the most "dampening" effect on your guitar's sound. Writing won't make much of a difference. For this reason, I would suggest only doing the front edge of the guitar. For my Baby Taylor guitar, I patched everything up super careful and did two thin layers of spray paint. I couldn't hear any difference in sound.

You'll see there's poster puddy around the silver tuning pegs, so that the guitar has a clean look when its done.

It started off as a chalkboard experiment, but that got messy. So it slowly turned into a collage of Coldplay and my own lyrics...

Don't be afraid to experiment a bit. Most of my instruments are constantly changing, with new colors and lyrics depending on my tastes/writing style...
