Hello,

I’m Bruce Sakaki, 18 yrs old, a student and currently living in Singapore, I have this guitar suggestion, now here’s my story, while I was going through my stuff I found these old denim pants that won’t fit me anymore, now my guitar was messed up, I spray painted it (not a good idea), since I found this denim pants, I said to myself “Hey, I wonder, How can I get rid of these paint”, now I looked at my pants and thought of this idea, since I haven’t seen ANYONE IN MY ENTIRE LIFETIME with this kind of idea/concept from International Acts, Local Musicians or even in T.V/etc., “What if I cover my Guitar with Denim??”, then I tried it of course, on my first attempt I made a cover for half of my guitar’s body, then it was a success, since it was a successful attempt, I was thinking “How bout cover the whole body!”, then, “YEAH! It’s finally done!”, since I ain’t Pro at sewing it took me 10 hours to finish it, woohh, I was in pain after doing that, ,now here’s the catch, since no other guitar company has made one (I dunno if some company or someone has actually made one), how bout make one, my friends dig it, maybe people out there will too, Pros about this idea is after the guitar is covered with denim, owner can customize it more, the way they want to, maybe buy some fabric paint or put some band patches. Cons are if the user is careless the guitar might get stinky or dirty and if the body breaks or has a crack on it the owner will/might tear off the denim (solution for this is zipper on the side). I still got ideas on my shallow head. Now here’s the picture of my finished product (my guitar is an LP copy):

Saw the pictures already.. Maybe next time you could cover up with corduroy..

Or interchangeble guitar skins.. Nice work..
 
Hahaha...I thought what was so urgent...Btw Nice work...Mybe u can sew on some patches on it...
 
to get attention dude.lol.i'll leave it as it is first,dun wanna remake the whole thing again..and ill put a stencil of sonny moore on it..
 
cool idea indeed. This way, you can start getting some factory to start sewing these under your brand. But you must have a good point why people will wanna buy this from u to put on their guitars.

Btw, y are u sending to gibson? let them take your idea and kick you aside? most prob that's what's going to happen from what i foresee.. if they decides that your idea got a good selling point.. and erm i dun think you wanna register a patent.. because i did a lil research on patent.. you'll have to fork out alot of $ and wait super long before your product can be patented. If you patent it under singapore, any guy from malaysia can just copy it legally and sell at their own country :D
 
read up tips on DIY amp cabinet makers and how they wrap tolex around their cabs.

you can use the same method on your guitar and it'll look tons better IMHO.
 
damn!

what u did to your guitar is cool sia..
keep it up man!

i really like the 2nd version, the one with the stencil..
damn nice!
 
dude. the one with the stencil isnt that nice. the first one, the plain one, is nicer.

hey you can add badges to your guitar! now isn't that new? great work dude. if this becomes famous, think how much money it'll make. how much money YOU'LL make. i'd get one. but, standard answer...NO MONEY!:(
 
dont put skinny jeans!take my advice.later the emo kids will invade.

yeah nicely done.keep it up.
