OK all you creative types.....I just picked up a rather reasonable Mapleglo 330.....very nice condition.
I'd like to have a bit of fun with it....it's too nice for a refin.....let's hear some suggestions what I could
do with the pickguard/TRC or anything else anyone can think of.

Brushed Steel
Paisley pattern
Reconstituted Glass ( Smokey Glass)
Rust effect
Clear plastic
Purple TRC/pickguard
or disguard them both and re-design to your own spec.
Yeah new design and new shape that would be cool..........

Or you could drop a couple of colored glow sticks down the sound hole-no batteries or wires required.
Back to mods:
Vintage TRC and knobs(black, not oven)
Toaster covers to mod your hi gains with
Accent vibrato.
If that's too expensive, just get some black electrical tape a la Paul Kantner to put a couple of racing stripes on the body...
