My son Clay's Rockabilly/Western Swing group, The Quickshifters, played at a custom car show in Oshawa last year and one of the painters offered to pinstripe his Gretsch if he'd play at an event he was putting on. This is the result. Clay loves it.

Jim , Nice job on that guitar! I love customized guitars. I'm a bit picky about when it's too much or too gaudy, but hey, art and stuff is subjective so that's to be expected. But that one looks sweet!

Here's my 2 babies in case you haven't seen them yet.

I won't be able to do much customizing if I get any more guitars right now cuz I don't have access to a laser engraver anymore, but, I'm hoping to fix that problem down the road.

=====================================
"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I
am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
- Jesus, from Matthew 11:28-30
