Is It me,...or did I see a shit load of wrinkles on and around the curved areas, and if so, you did not explain how to get those out with that particular skin. I have never worked with the stuff which is why I am asking...Thanks!!!
@orngwhp71 You may have when I just roughly laid the skin out on the guitar but after it is installed there are zero wrinkles or bubbles. The material is speciafically designed to be extremely user friendly and has a special adhesive that eliminates air bubbles and wrinkles that are normally associated with vinyl. Also the laminate we use is designed to mimic clear coat so you'll be amazed how many people you'll fool into thinking your guitar is airbrushed.
This is the same materials used in vehicle wraps and is quite tough. Just do a search on YouTube for "Vehicle Wraps" and you should find how this is done.
Hi Frank and thanks!! The exact material we use is kind of a "secret sauce" so to speak. The material is specifically made with the ability to be removed cleanly years down the road without leaving any residue or doing any harm to your natural finish. Give our product a try, you will not be dissapointed.
@fourthfloorgraphics1 Hi, this was a good question! Is the skin really not damaging the guitar. If it is then I can take an expensive guitar, apply the skin, use it and some years after remove it and sell the guitar without any scratches. That`s be awsome! Is that doable? I`m already preparing some custom designs to order, this product seems amazing!!
@edge30 Yes the skin will protect the guitars original finish and in 10 years if you want to take the skin off it will not have done any harm to the guitars natural finish.
Reason being is that all electric guitars are different. Even two guitars of the same make and model will not be exactly the same. Trimming the skin after installation guarantee's an exact fit and gives the guitar a painted appearance rather than having gaps.
Surely you could trace your guitar and transfer the trace onto the skin then cut out the skin and install but 1. It takes forever and you could still end up with gaps if you botched your template somehow and 2. It would be a major pain trying to install that way on an arch top guitar. I've experimented with every application method imaginable and the method shown in our video is not only the fastest but is also the easiest and most precise.
This is so friggin cool. I want one so bad!!!!!!!
Quick Question:
1) An ESP guitar and an LTD guitar are pretty much the same thing but both aren't listed. If I wanted a skin for my LTD guitar would an ESP one do? Or are there specialized orders?
Hello and thanks!! Our skins are available for virtually any make and model of electric guitar and bass. I tried to list as many as I could on our site but naturally we left some out. An ESP and an LTD will be the same shapewise. If, however, you don't see your guitar listed on our site simply shoot me an email and you can order your skin right through me.

For guitars with pickguards you will get a separate skin just for the pickguard with your order.

I think that it can kill the sound. Doesn't it?

Hi. Nice work.
What kind of Vinyl do you use for the skins?
Is there any chance it could damage the paintwork when trying to remove the skin?
