My previous comment aside, I am a fan of the Very Berry Bronco.

I think what makes it work is portions of the decal are transparent, which makes it appear to painted on and the strawberry matches the color of the paint. Looks like vintage floral wallpaper.

whatevs, do what you want.

I've had stickers on some and naught on others but the paint.

I said no but they can be ok. I have teh kurtz on the back of my Jag. I highly doubt I'd be playing this guitar (or guitar in general ?) without his input.

HAHAHA

I will take it off one day and there will be a awesome faded angel outline, that'd be much cooler.

I have an upside down, dayglo orange sombrero decal with the word 'MEXICO' underneath, on my MIM Jazzmaster and a smiley teardrop on the pickguard of the Mascis JM

Some people pull it off well, plenty of famous players have. I'm a bit whatever about it too, I see it as a cheap way of decorating or personalizing your guitar, is it really that much different to creaming your pants over a certain colour or changing pup covers, scratchplates, fitting Witch Hats, relicing..? I'm not so sure it is.

But always good stickers.

When I bought my first Strat I covered it with stickers on the back and lower edge to protect it from scratches It was not pretty.

but it was where I was at then. I haven't added stickers to any other guitars.

Bingo.

Only cartoon characters, sexy pinups, or a combination of the two.



On my project Strat I have Tupac's skull just to piss people off.

I had stickers all over my first bass... when I was 13. I was trying to be all Jerry Cantrell-like. I wouldn't dare do it now. Shit is WANK

I sticker EVERYTHING ... like i'm still 8.. at 32..

except my 339.. no stickers no that (yet)

Oh, indeed. Do you want some 1975 Jan Pienkowski daisies?

I had a minor surface chip on my favorite guitar so I ruined it further by putting a Hello Kitty sticker on it. I think it was a good way to turn what was a blemish into a bit of personality on my part.



I also have Hello Kitty stickers on just about all of my headstocks, except the actual Hello Kitty guitars, because they don't really need them.

I dont get what you are saying. If you "ruined" one guitar with a sticker why would you have them on most of your guitars?
Also, why did you cover the blemish? Do you have OCD problems? I'm not being a twat, just intrigued with your process of thought

I didn't really ruin it in my mind, but I figured most dudes think putting a Hello Kitty sticker on things ruins stuff. As for why I covered the blemish, yes, I have OCD problems. Many musicians do, I think.

As for my other guitars, I don't have the big HK sticker but I have little clear Hello Kitty decals on headstocks. I really like the way they sit on CBS headstocks.



I think they're cute and look like they belong there.
