Racing stripe

Post by DGNR8 »

I have a fucking ear infection or some shit, the day before a huge deadline. So naturally I am looking at Mustangs on ebay. This ONE has a ho-made stripe on it, which is semi lame, but has interesting possibilities. I can see having the proper stripe going the length of a guitar.

And while you're at it, check out the white finish. It's crack-a-lacquer.

I thought the auction was for the whole guitar and nearly had a heart attack when I saw the price.

Ya know, I like it... in concept, if not this particular execution.

I don't think I'd like it if it were in perfect shape but I think it looks great worn in on that guitar.

That looks fantastic. I would love to own that.

It needs this strap.

It would also be cool to have another stripe going under the pickguard parallel to the first one. I like the concept of that guitar. A different take on it.
