DIY customising the look of your guitar

[OhamtaroO]

I want to change the look of my plain ESP F series guitar. I've seen people use epoxy resin to decorate their fretboards, it gives a really artistic look to it. I've also seen people getting special stickers that are meant for guitars and decorating theirs with it. I want to customise it so that it is not very plain, what methods are there to customise the look of it?

print out photos naked ladies and paste it on your guitar

You could get decals, which could cost about 30 dollars?
Or get a custom paint job which would set you back about 200 bucks.

Or you could always do it yourself, which would either cost nothing or a new guitar lol

just need a few spray cans & go with the flow.Highly encourage softies with beat up guitars to diy it instead of leaving it underutilised.

how much are those stickers? How big and what type of design?

 

[OhamtaroO]

hmm, hopefully there are some really nice designs that can fit on my guitar =s

 

[optisailor2002]

pretty cheap, less than 10 bucks for a piece. can range from 5 to around 10 la depending on the size. the one i bought fit the left side of the bottom half of the body for my warlock (if you get what i mean =x) got some tribal designs some flames and brand names etc.
