The unfinished guitar, ready to paint. The green tape is for masking the binding, neck, cutaways for pickups, etc. to protect the guitar. An undercoat of vinyl sealer was sprayed on the guitar by Mad Mick from Smyrna, who is a master at handpainting and airbrushing  motorcycles, cars, and helmets and he will be  spraying  the critical finishing coats on my guitar. You can see the motorcycle he painted for 99X personality Axel here: http://www.99x.com/index.asp?url=%2Fstation%2Fjocks%2Faxel%2Fharley%5Fphotos%2Easp%3F

Mad Mick and his work.
