doing guitars doesn't need a killer spray gun set up i have guns from $20 to $1000 but i use because of not a big area to paint with a little knowledge you can get almost as good job with rattle cans, i only use my good guns for automotive but if you just want it to do the odd guitar with out outlaying big money
here's what i use and i get good results, 2 guns a large gun and a touch up gun which im impressed by its of the gun finish don't bother buying spay gun from super cheap as their rubbish, the touch up gun doesn't spit either so you dont get spots of stain in you dye colour
this gun is a little ripper i use to spray stains and paint to do burst with i wont go into the jargon

as you can see their not that expensive they do a pretty decent job as for a compressor the belt drive super cheap one is a excellent piece of kit and you can pick them up for a little over $300 on special, which happens quite regular, its fast enough to keep up with those guns autobarn have a scorpion which is basically the same unit

i have recently upgraded my compressor to a 20cfm 100lt tri pump as i dont just do guitars but i used the super cheap for about a year and preformed pretty good but couldn't keep up with my big iwata and sata guns and it quiet don't get suckered in to paying for something you will never need
@phil doesn't the gunman annoy the crap out of you he never shuts up some of his waffling isn't actually correct
