U should get a rickenbacker 325 controllee like johns n make it either like johns 1 that he had in 1958 natural color or make it like george Harrisons rickenbacker but over all VERY NICE I bought a fender 2 I'm gnna do the same thing
dude thanks you've inspired me to ask my father to help! XD me out with this and now me and my father are gonna make one, cause I'm not a good painter
one question, how did you take the pick guard of when there was that metal piece with the little plastic on top of it? I forget what its called but its by the start and select buttons. Im not talking about the whammy bar.
Wow. Thanks for sharing this awesome modification. I wonder a couple of things, because we've been hoping to do the same thing: 1) where online did you get your best pictures of Rocky; 2) what are the 4 spray cans for, and when did you use each? Thanks again!
1. This was a tricky thing to do. Basically, I obtained all of them through Google, and then used Firefox's magnification tool to get close up to them.
2. Adhesion Promoter, Plastic Primer, Paint, and Clear Coat. The Adhesion promoter is a good bonding agent for paint to plastic. Its usual application is in plastic car panels, but it did an awesome job in this instance. The primer is so that the spray paint will set up correctly. The paint was added to put a nice base coat onto the guitar before hand. The clear was so that the hand paint would be under a nice shell and be somewhat protected.
And you put them on in that order? What brand/color name was the light blue? How many coats of paint did you use? Did you spray the whole guitar with the clear coat, back and front? And thanks again!
Correct, the light blue was probably a little darker shade than the real guitar, which I believe is closer to a light or baby blue color. I sprayed the entire guitar with clear, minue the fret buttons portion, front and back. All paints (minus adhesion promoter, and primer) received 4 coats.
The image at 1:35 in your video: can you give a URL for that? I haven't been able to find it. Also: have you found images that are certifiably Rocky, and not recreations? (I mean closeups, not the ones from Magical Mystery Tour where George is playing it.) THANKS!
How much did it cost you to do this mod? I'm completely new to painting anything really so would there be a chance to do a literal text based step by step instruction on how to do this? Thanks! and Great Work!!
The mod to the guitar itself was maybe 40 bucks or so all together. The spray paints are the most expensive, the hand paints were cheap like 50 cents to a dollar at Wally World.
EXCELLENT JOB!!!!!!

You mean the effect switch? The little white tab pops off, and you can remove the pick guard while the metal is still attached to the guitar.
