Refinish Question

Post by TheyMightBe »

OK, I've finally figured out my dream finish for my future Ric (thank you Photoshop). I was curious how much something like this would cost and who could do it?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Sexy green Ricky!!!

I like it just as you've rendered here -but can also see it with gold guards and oven knobs.

Nice cool green Rickenbacker, George, and eminently do-able.

I've seen two shades of green that look nice on Ricks--apple/lime (hot, like the one in WI) and spruce green, like the 12-string Jumbo I did last year. This is spruce--a color on the cool side. Very sweet.

On this one, I wouldn't do gold guards (of which I'm normally a BIG fan), or oven knobs (ditto). The color's just too clean and contemporary.

Anyway, write me off-list at managing_director at conceptcar dot uk remove the spaces, substitute for @ and dot, and you've got it.

Yes, that's a great color! :D
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
