    How'd you do the pinstripes?

    And your guitar just keeps looking better and better after each mod. Haha. I seriously can't wait till you get the binding on. Makes me wish I didn't sell my RR3

        That's a very cheap mod!

        I've cut thin stripes of white tape then I've stuck them on. It was very long because thin stripes get torn very fast so I had to be very careful.

        I keep the black pickguard because I don't like pickguards that much on a RR. It's less visible this way.

        I plan to buy one or two brass pickup mounting rings too.

          It's going to look great with binding. Are you going to do over the frets? Sweet job on doing the pinstripes too.

            Why not just go to an auto store and get some actual pinstripe tape? I did that for the very first V I ever owned and it held up pretty well.

              I started the job yesterday evening because I found this white tape back. I thought it could be cool to cut some stripes of it for my guitar.

              I didn't know it was possible to do that in a shop. Maybe i'll do it someday then! But if I hadn't found the white tape, I'd have probably never done that!

                    That looks awesome. I'm thinking the pickups might be nice in zebra (well, white zebra rather than cream).

                      I dunno, I kind of like how the black pickguard blends in to the body and it makes it look like a rear route.
