Kinda cool.

Location: NJ		Not crazy 'bout it . . .

The CONCEPT is good, but the execution's a bit lacking.

Looks like it should be on '76 Chevy van with a porthole window . . .

Location: CA		Painting the tops of guitars is an interesting concept. Most times, I think it detracts from the look and value of the guitar, but I must admit I've seen a few pretty nice jobs.

But a question if I may: Wouldn't paint detract from the sound? Maybe not on this example if it was airbrushed over the original finish. But someone mentioned a Chevy Van motif here (I agree — seems like there should be a voluptuous half-naked babe in chainmail somewhere). The way car guys normally do it is to airbrush the artwork, then spray with a clearcoat — which seems like it could be really detrimental to the tonal qualities of an acoustic guitar. I imagine you can pretty much do anything to a solid-body electric that you wanted. But not an acoustic. Opinions?
