+1 for Gold Leaf. That color is the Shiz!

Well, I don't know anyone who can do gold leaf for me, so that's probably out.
Still haven't made up my mind though.
Do what I did with the 'Cobra Jet' guitar mike, but make the colors match the RR, i.e. paint the body a matching green, with a flat black stripe in the middle!

If you're going with a racing theme:
You're never too old for tater tots.
Z - If you're going to go with an opaque color, I've always liked Silverburst (like on the Les Paul Custom except not teardrop). There was a Singlecut Hollowbody out there PRS did in a non-teardrop Silverburst and it looked fantastic.
Stained Charcoal Burst might be cool, too.
I don't think there is enough figure in the wood to do a stained top, especially considering the two holes that need to be plugged.

That is such a cool car, Frankie. Glad to see you still have it. I thought someone told me you traded it for a new Jag.Originally Posted by FrankiePRS

Yeah, that's true. I think the opaque Silverburst picture on top would look fuggin' sweet though. Just my $0.02.
How did I ever miss the first part of the post where it said it was flung in a domestic dispute. That's not cool - hit the spouse, hit the kids - whatever - but leave the defenseless PRS out of it haha

Gotta say...I dig the silverburst look too.

Traded it for my Supercharged Jag, which is my daily driver... bought it back with a blown engine for half of what I sold it for. (happened to have a spare 429 in the shed)That is such a cool car, Frankie. Glad to see you still have it. I thought someone told me you traded it for a new Jag.

I have two spare 122s and a 152. I guess that makes a 12 cylinder 396?

Every consider doing some blow-torch relicing?

i'll gonna try a silver leaf finish on my Hamer Californian setneck.
at that guitar silver looks more "heavy" than gold.
anyone here did similar before - because so many recommended gold leaf?
