basically is it feasible (easy and not cost prohibitive) and anyone able to recomend a painter?

i was casually interested in entertaining the idea of matching the headstock on my blue sparkle supersonic

i doubt ill do it, but i was curious.

you'd probably struggle to get the colour to match, to be honest. and if you pay someone to do it you lose money twice, once by shelling out cash for them to do it, and second when you knock money off the potential resale value of a reasonably popular and desirable guitar.
