Blood Tempest is just really niceBlood Tempest is just really nice
NGD...Well not really...Guitar Makeover!

Hey guys. I never posted a NGD thread when I got my RG7321, because the mods started the day she came in. So far, everything has been purely cosmetic. I'm still waiting on the damn local music store to get my DiMarzio Evo 7 and D Activator 7 Neck in. They ordered them on April 9th, I called today, and the sales rep said he needed to call about it and he'd call me back. Ugh. I hate this store. Anywho, I've been busy with the RG. I painted everything but the knobs, they came white stock. I work at a Duron Paint store, so I got the spray supplies from there. I bought a can of our Duron brand Terminator 1 oil based white primer and a can of our Color Touch Gloss White. Here are the results. I must say, I was very pleased and surprised at how well everything turned out. I'm stoked!

In case you are wondering, the pieces I painted were: Tuner washers, tuner knobs, truss rod cover, electronics back plate, and 5 way switch tip.



Yes, I know my guitar is dirty and smudged, but I really didn't see the sense in re-stringing it and cleaning it when the pick up swap still needs to take place.


The pics of the knobs came out really bad. They're basically Gibson style knobs in white. they have a clear top on them and black numbering/lines. Looks pretty nice. Unlike the pics show.











Can't wait to get the white DiMarzios in this baby. It's gonna look KILLER!




Dark clouds in your heaven.
Your end has only begun.
You can scream but there's no rescue,
I promise I'll make you sure that you die in time.
