My Home Paint Job EVH 5150

Nearly finished this is my kramer body, i still need to buy a neck for it. Ordered the 5150 spacetape and stars they should get here in 2 weeks, but i couldntwait to stick them laquer and shine it up so i shined it up now cos i just had to see what it looks like :D:D its nice and shiny and is better than my black and white one. Paint ran a bit on the black. Not sure wheather i should fix that though

if you make the Kramer version then its white..red..then ..black..

[revchild]

remember the actual frankie IS the black and white one...Eddie stated that in an interview about the replicas..so it is black ...white..then red...

@revchild No. If you paint your black lines first then your black will be on top. If not, then they won't be. Of course the 5150 is a different paint job and guitar, but the order of colors was still the same. I made a Kramer Frankenstein replica, not the Kramer 5150 but the Kramer ad guitar and I used the 5150's back. You do Black, White, Red. You can't paint stripes affter you've done your top coat....

@TheMadMusicMan no the black lines are on top of the white once you peel the tape. it looks like its awhite body with black stripes on it..watch j5150 vids or jbstuff vids...for the frankie style paint job..the 5150 kramer one pickup is different...different guitar and paintjob.

@revchild Flase. If you did that then you white line would be on top of your black lines. Look at Ed's 5150, the black lines are on top of his white lines, by his method of painting (painting the color then roll the tap around) your first color overlaps your second. It's a simular method of how he did the Frankenstein.
