If mad max played guitar this would be it !!
Martino, the finish on your guitar is phenominal. I feel like a jerk with my single color spray can finish.
Love your guitar by the way.

Believe it or not you kinda have to plan this stuff out. I cut corners
like no string thur or jack cup if I ran out of time I could skip the
pick guard cause no pickup rout but I think I am gona make it.
Thanks Johnny A. !

Anxious to see this one.
When I put it all together the pickguard is way too bright I need something
to balance it out:
so I start to put colors on and thinner on to build up
to look like rust.
did not have time to photo everything today so on to
the stencil of the dragon lady.

I dont usually like all the rust and cracking, but i think it works on this guitar. I especially like the letters on the back. Well done.
I was having a hard time trying to figure out what this one was going to look like when it was done. Well, I think it looks awesome.
