So one of my friends was going to waste a grand on a pink Fender Paisley Telecaster because "That's the look I want". Its basically the $500 entry level Fender Telecaster Standard, but with a fancy paint job, but not fancy enough to double the price, so I talked him out of it. Besides, its pink and I will not be seen on stage with him playing a ink guitar. So when I explained to him that he would spend more on that than he did on his current guitar, a far superior Epiphone Les Paul with Gibson pickups installed (a mere $250 btw), he remembered that I was an artist and asked if i could paint it dark blue and put some paisleys on it.

So I found a stock picture online and mocked this up for his approval. The real trick though is gonna be actually painting it. Not quite sure how I"m gonna go about it though I have heard of a number of techniques. I just need to settle on one and practice it a bunch of times before I do the real deal. Haven't shown him yet, figured I'd get some Critiques first. I think its great, but I'm obviously biased. Tell me what you think.
