Blackjack SG

[vh2580]

Scored a seconds SG awhile ago and now doing a "Blackjack" build for a colleague.
Stained the body with Jap Black F&W and slightly distressed the finish and will be covering the front and headstock with a Distressed Black union jack in Vinyl.
Will be a standard build in the silver hardware it came with, as have a feeling this will never leave a wall. (I feel so dirty!)

Looks good interested to see how is comes out with the vinyl.

cool concept Tony! Some guitars are for players, some for collectors: no problem, as long as it is enjoyed

Got the vinyl on the headstock and trimmed.

looks great Tony!

Is the vinyl just printed at home, or was it done another way?

[vh2580]

Fitted the front skin and started to trim up. went on fairly easily and the inner cutouts were easy. Slowly slowly trimming the outer as want it to run on the line of the guitar (not easy)

And the body shot.

Stan ordered it off internet www.skinyourskunk.com. how the name relates to guitars??

[stan]

Looks really awesome tony. Was it a custom skin or one from their catalog?
