im bidding on a sonic blue jagmaster (fingers crossed) that comes with a tortoise shell pickguard on it that i dont like at all.


anyone know if its easy to spray paint over that with a fairly light color or will it look like ass & i just just spend $60 godam dollars for a new one?


thanks
zero

if yours has the vista knob placement, i'll buy it from you. y'know, to put toward the purchase of a new one.

personally, i wouldn't paint it, shit's almost rare.

EDIT: for knob placements

vista (like a jazzmaster):



china-town (more jag-ish):



i'm looking for one to build with different humbuckers, but would prefer tort.

You found excalibur?

Yes, you can paint it. It might wear off, though.

To be safe, I would use Krylon Fusion. If you want extra protection, get some polyurethane clear in a spray can. Minwax makes some in satin, semi-gloss, and gloss.

60 bucks for a new one? who is selling them at 60 bucks? they are making alot of dough off of people then.
it would be easier to buy one in my opinion.
please tell us what year and version of jagmaster it is. i have the first 25.5 scaler version, and the convertion guard templates, but not the vista series stuff, so if its one of the latter i could make you a guard, and it won't cost 60 bucks.

depends on how much you love that guitar.


do you love it tenderly?
if so
buy a new one.

I have tried this with tinted clear to make a white pickguard look older, I scuffed the plastic to try and let the paint stick better but it still came off in the picking areas within a month
