Thread: Andys Build #4 : JM-1 "Steppin Out In Paisley"

  1. #1
    Well here she is guys, my Jazzmaster in Paisley Print.

    Originally was going to be plain black, had the initial coats on, when I stumbled across Fender's ST Paisley on there web site...and thought "now that's different". So things quickly changed.
    It really tested me out this one, every step of the way. Everything from poor fitting neck pocket, trouble with timber expansion when wet sanding, dropping the body onto the shed floor (luckily onto the rubber floor mat), also a total sand back and restart of headstock because I was unhappy with it (way to picky), to name but a few...all requiring repair jobs. But we got there in the end, be it with a little less hair!!

    Really happy with the end result, looks a lot better in the flesh...my snap shots don't do her justice.

    Andy, that looks fantastic!
    Is the paisley a print or transfer on the top and back?

    Andy, that is just fantastic!

    How did you get the Paisley effect?

    Andy, that is drop-dead gorgeous. What's not to love about it. It's an axe I would proudly show off. Well done!

    That's really wicked - beautifully finished too.

    Mee three wanna know how you did it, including what appears to be an airbrush burst?

    Paisley schmaisley ... holy cow that really works - paisley normally evokes dodgy 70's olive greens and oranges for me and when I saw the topic, I nearly passed this one up, but this looks darn hot! If it was up in a shop, I could see it being the one people are pulling down and playing!

    Great job Andy - it looks fantastic.
