where can i find great paintjobbers in kl which can help me paint an exact frankenstrat on my body.

gg?
setapak there
superb quality
and by the way dont send to people at music store or sum famous musician that said they can do it
i once did that and it desolated my guitar
luckily its nt that bad
just send it to gg
but it will be costly

gg isnt that costly.
its just very time consuming in that he will take at least 2 months to do it cos hes got other stuff also.

DIY:

http://www.guitarattack.com/mattocaster/vanhalen/sagavh.htm

The hard part is to remove the existing layer of paint... Modern guitars have a thick layer of polymer clear coat that is very hard to remove.. So I think DIY is quite hard..

Polycoats = Sand the baby down, maybe even need chiseling =p

Nitrocoats = just wipe off with acetone xD

conclusion nitro ftw

DIY is too hard for me ; if one thing wrong i do = mati

Normally pros use to fire-blow down (forgot the correct term...) the the poly coat...
It'll leave some burn marks on your wood, but it can be sanded off...

Donald: that's the whole point of DIY, start off with a crappy body first... You can try ordering a basic basswood body + neck from warmoth or usa custom guitar, get the cheapest one... Then try it yourself...

Or if you want cheaper stuff to work on, browse through classifieds and get a beat up strat...

EVH went to Fender's (or...???) factory back in the days and went to pick out their rejected bodies as his own...

fyi im 13 whose gonna help? daddy busy

DIY = DO IT YOURSELF

So what you're 13? Hands not developed enough to spray paint?

yup too precious my hand to get dirty

LOL, what the..then ask your bro to help u lo

note my bro in uk

well since you so rich, you just ask your friends to "sacrifice" abit lo, then you pay them with your money la easy

if i were as rich as u
ill just get a new custom guitar
;D

the thing with warmoth...
if ur going to build a guitar that looks like whats available...better just go get whats available and mod it abit...
like the SG warmoth...its much better to get a epi G-400...else u will just make a way over-priced epi G-310 lookalike that doesnt play as good...

likewise with the strat shape...better go get a MIM fender...
same with the other shapes like LP etc.

unless of cos u wanna make like some 4 humbucker monster in pink sunburst with 3 heads...

There's really no harm if you want to build your own guitar.
In fact, I commend it! It's not easy to build your guitar own guitar and you really need lots of patience, time, effort, skill and more patience to build your dream guitar.

But if you're building a guitar thinking that it's going to outplay generations of experienced guitar builder's efforts....... then I think you're going to be greatly disappointed.
