Whoever said your drawing skills was crap, are fools. I'd love a guitar painted like that.

[@Alexbaird83]

I'm so sorry people told you you weren't good at drawing. You are GREAT at drawing. If you have the time and inclination, please keep doing it. Based on this, I'd consider you a talented illustrator.

[@KazSkellington]

Thanks! Considering to make another one soon!

Sweet trilling dude. Nice artwork too.

[@KazSkellington]

Thanks! I just fake it and keep recording until I get the one that sounds right haha

[@theuserthatishere]

if that is a fernandez that would have been worth some decent money. that era has a bit of a following

[@KazSkellington]

The neck was pretty jacked up and maybe its worth decent money in the States? I see a bunch of old fernandez lying around in Japan for cheap all the time

[@theuserthatishere]

@@KazSkellington if it's the correct era with correct fender headstock maybe $600-$1000 u.s. dolars

[@mak_attakks]

[@KazSkellington]

Thanks!! Yeah I really love how it turned out Im about to make a new one!

[@mak_attakks]

@@KazSkellington awesome! I look forward to it

[@Byrnyngman]

If I were to paint on a guitar body without finish, would it be a good idea to start with a primer? Does anyone have any recommendations?

[@KazSkellington]

i think so. the marker and the ink might not fully sit on the surface and might smear so I think having a clear gesso or a primer would be good

[@martingaspar8364]

wow this is actually lot easier than taking whole finish off. Do you think I can sandpaper my gloss polyurethane and then paint on it?

[@KazSkellington]

I'm not really sure cuz I dont think Ive ever seen gloss polyurethane but I think if you sand the polish enough or use clear gesso on it you can paint it. The thing I'll be concerned about would be how thick and strong the polyurethane is

[@martingaspar8364]

@@KazSkellington thank you, I might actually just take the whole finish off :) idk I will see

It's so cool to have my own custom guitar after watching this video. I've also customized it on my guitar. I left a video. Can I post it on CZcams? I'll leave you a link to your CZcams channel

I shall narrate it ASMR too

[@hammermillable]

What kind of pencil did you sketch with? I want to do something similar but worried the acrylic market over the top of the lead pencil might get screwed up by it?

[@KazSkellington]

I think I just used a regular HB pencil but I used a lot of ink on my marker to cover and hide the pencil draft! I recommend using a thick marker/ink that can overwrite stuff underneath.

[@tylerdurden0031]

hi mate i have an cort x1 black matte and i wanna paint it with sharpie do u think i can?

[@KazSkellington]

hmmm not sure because ive never seen or touched that guitar but i feel like the sharpie will fade away if the matte is too smooth. It might work after you put clear gesso on it but i cant assure you. i would probably just draw a small dot on the side or the back to test out if the ink works first lol. keep in mind these projects always comes with a great risk!

[@mendigodase]

Loved your project, man. I'm trying to the same as you did. Did you sand the pickguard before painting it too?

[@KazSkellington]

Thank you!! From what I remember, I didnt sand the pickguard but I think I sprayed a clear primer before I put clear gesso on it. Should have put in the video but totally forgot I did that until now. Hope all goes well!

[@mendigodase]

@@KazSkellington Thanks, dude. I'll try it, if it works I'll let u know.
