[Konfyouzd]

What is this? I DEMAND moar pics of this one. Looks very interesting.

RG7620 that I burnt and stained blue :-D

It might take me a while to dig up more pix.

 

[Edika]

Done a few....

Dude you've got skills!!!

Nice work on these!

 

[Crash Dandicoot]

These all look great, especially the swirls.

My friend Matt was in Born of Osiris for like a year and he got an LACS RG1527 in Lochness Green haha, good choice

Nice dude . The 1527 im having painted is actuall Lee from BOO's old 1527 haha. small world. Id love to see a picture of his if you could find it

^ I seriously cannot express my jealousy of that guitar. Would you be okay with me totally ripping that finish off at some point?

 

[Austin175]

Wow all these look great, I think im gonna have to pay one of you guys to do mine

If you do it in a different color yes...

 

[MF_Kitten]

that's my "beaten and bruised" RG on the right

 

[DarthV]

Some awesome finishes! How many hours of work went into them? I'd be tempted to do the same for my chipped out 7620 and 1527!

 

[JosephAOI]

If you do it in a different color yes...

I can't promise that..

It'll probably be an RGD though, if that makes a difference?

I just love that purple/black cloud look! Don't care for the whole "nebula" theme idea

 

[MicrobeSS]

This thread is just awesome.

Makes me want to try to refinish some of mine.

 

[c0n0r]

Done a few....

Blue swirl 7420 bod:

Skeels, that Blue Swirl is awesome! I can't believe you got rid of it! :/


Anyway, here's my Jupiter Swirl 7620

Actually is a greyish purple. I wanted it to be more sparkly but I didn't find any! I have some color mockups that may appear appealing to you. I can PM you those in interested (just toyed with the hue in PS).

I think it would be more interesting if you use different colors haha

Ok so this thread is a little older, but I said earlier I thought it should be sticky-ed for as often as people do this. Here's my 7321. It started out black, just like everyone elses...

Minwax Dark Walnut stain and Formby's! Hipshot and Crunchlab/Liquifier! Blam!!

REALLY happy with how well the scoop turned out.

5-way-switch? F-you. Tone knob? Be gone.
Eventually going to wire this with a 1meg pot and 4pdt switch ala Petrucci, but one thing at a time...

I recessed the volume and 3-way-switch too! Go me!

Bridge saddles are a little high, but since I took so much off the body trying to get through the sealer coat, I have to shim the neck to make a reverse neck angle. And finish wiring the electronics. I also plan to sand the gloss off then neck and blah blah blah...
Free time, right?

And special thanks to my wife for taking precious time away from crazy children to shoot these sweet shots.

Done a few....

Burned and carved 7321:

What stain/dye did you use cause this is amazing and how long did the sanding and carving take?

The refinish is not complete yet.
Headstock needs ibanez logo and then clear coat on both guitar and headstock,..
Cheers

 

[wannabguitarist]

Should be done fairly soon

 

[Hollowway]

Duuuude! Can I see a closer picture? Is that real fabric under there?
