Scratch-X? Zymol? Fingerprints?
Well, you don't have to worry so much about those sorts of things when you start with this...

Im presuming thats for yer fingertips?

People, do not try this at home!

Rust-oleum on the factory one off!!

Well.......

Yes, I've been convinced that Jetglo does indeed rock better than any other color. But which one to upgrade?

I thought about the one-off, but nah, it might be hard to get a good look what with all of the different woods.

Then I thought of my old '76 4001 Azureglo that's got lots of chips and dings and such. A new paint job would be sure to spruce that one up! But, those chips and dings might not look so good without a whole lot of work up front.

Then I thought about this one: It's already kinda dark around the edges, so if I don't do such a good job around all of those pesky curves, you'll hardly notice...

So, where to start? Hmmm, since I'm not exactly an expert at painting guitars, maybe I should start on the back since that won't be quite so visible if I mess it up...

OK. Hey, this isn't all that tough, I think it's going pretty good so far... I don't know how those so-called pro guys get away with charging so much for sprayin' a little paint...

Then I saw this:

I'm tossing the Rics I have out on the curb, and getting me one of those!

But isn't that a redheadFG?

NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Don't paint over the fireglo! She's a beauty!

My opinion: prank. At least I hope so.

CJ's the MAN.

And, what if he was serious about buying a JG Rick, and produces the evidence in a few days?

In all fairness, I had one too. SOLD IT REAL QUICK AND REAL CHEAP TOO! I don't think I had that thing for two weeks!

The real problem is not the JG finish, Tony, it's your fingers!

Hmmm... coming along nicely. You ought to blog this resto.

I think the bull top right needs a respray...
