Pin stripe or no?

[d barham]

Looking at my partscaster a couple days ago. It’s a peach, I love it. Plays good, sounds good. I have some vintage and stock guitars that I wouldn’t dream of striping, but this one maybe.

My guitar

similar body with striping.

What do you think?

 

[Dismalhead]

Personally not my thing, but have at it if you like it. Your guitar.

I love pinstriping. It is a cool art form! My next Tele will probably be pinstriped BSB, Shoreline, or Firemist gold. Do it!

Are you doing it yourself or is there a striper in your area?

 

[d barham]

There are custom strippers in the area. I haven’t spoken to them yet.

Striper?
Kind of different.

Make sure you bring plenty of singles!

I like the look of the Tele as is

( but I dig the look and taste of vanilla ice cream. So maybe a little boring
in my tastes)

 

[johnnylaw]

Do it!

Though brother @Fiesta Red will not concur, respectfully, nope.
It looks cool as is!

 

[Cpb2020]

If you like it, go for it. I think it would look great with that color. But it looks great as is too.

 

[Fiesta Red]

It looks spectacular both ways…but yeah…I’d pinstripe it!

@brookdalebill ‘s prediction was correct…

Them stripes and that color would be a great combination.

Not for me.

I’m a sticker man myself.

I have 1 pinstriped and 2 that aren't. I really dig the pinstriped guitar but it does mostly get used for playing very particular music.

So I guess my advise would be if you don't plan on selling it ever(I don't ever sell any) go for it, cause once it is pinstriped it kind of limits the amount of buyers.
