Re: pick the new color
a vinyl kit would by far be easier, faster, & cheaper......and less destructive (you wouldnt have to strip off the paint or do any painting......most people dont put a clear coat on top of the kit either). but having it painted on sure would look better (as long as its done well), and would probably be more durable. dunno, its up to you

Re: pick the new color
it is bare wood now and i was gonna put the decals on that then clear coat, if thats the way i go. figured it would keep the vinyl from peeling too.

I've kinda always seen u playing a gtr painted in gray car primer, with a small area of redish primer somewhere.

Definitely Amber-O-Flage, preferably in full Technicolor :32:
And Yeah, replace that unsightly Gibson logo with something cool, Dave can surely help ya there ( A month ago I´d have bet money I´d never say that, but Elderly was the straw that broke the camel´s back, one of 2 is already gone and the one that´s still here has a heavy personal sentimental value, so it got lucky)
Now I need a Jackson Explorer and a PRS Singlecut :headbang:

Re: pick the new color
by the way, i am in the dark about what is going on with gibson and elderly. i havent heard anything about it. would someone tell me or at least throw a link up here so i can read about it.
actually some genius had painted it barney purple, body neck headstock and all. it's been srtipped down to barewood now. i got a dyed holly peghead overlay and inlayed pearl gibson logo and put the little gold les paul model decal on it(for a standard look, it was originally a studio lite).LesStrat said:Anything, as long as you sand off, erase, destroy, or cover the Gibson logo. Maybe put Elder(ly) on the headstock
