So paisley finishes were/are done with wallpaper? That makes sense. And gives me ideas.

Yes the old ones(68/69) were made with self sticking wallpaper. The reissues in the 80's were copies of that paper made in Japan so they don't have the same texture as the original. The new ones have plastic sheet with a paisley pattern in it. I want to know where you can buy that Borden paisley Contact paper? I don't think they make it anymore.

Can it walk now? Is there no better way to bend a string than have an old window opener installed?
What a dunce.

Restores two patches of lost lacquer on original '68 Paisley, reapplies NOS paper in exact original style, refinishes, routes 40% of it away for big fucking pulley/lever system.

it already had the routing when they got it. They addd the hardware and custom cut a plexi glass plate; it's more shocking that they refinished, not that it has a b-bender.

yeah, you can see the two holes in the front of the body in the before shot. the rest of his restorations are pretty sympathetic too, if you have a look.

Stewart, I tried putting one in my dick and it really didn't have the desired effect - just some bleeding and a world of hurt.

Loves the paisley.
I was thinking about doing one as a project on a squire tele body but then I ended up selling the body.
Not too bothered about B-Bender or G-Benders, I'd have a dabble, TRU COW PUNX innit. You probably need to really practice to not sound like arse though
