I will be giving it the mirror treatment only in the areas not reflecting in that shot above. Right where the angle starts to drop off from the center... make sense?

[Kelly Mitchell]

I have an Ibanez Jem on the way, but mainly posted this to pimp my product

[gitrplar]

Man that sounds cool as hell, post some pic when you get that mirror on the edges. I'd really like to see that.

Nice work Kelly, I have an IbanezPrestige with some paint chips that I was thinking of getting some kind of body work done to - you can't get your hands on my Jem or Universe!!! You think you could pull off a lightning effect like the pic on my homepage? I know the Rhoads Jackson has a lightning strike on it but its not nearly enough and it's not very high definition. I'm looking for something explosive over a black background (the axe is that metallic black with astock pickguard - don't mind losing that. Onlypickguard I like is themirror one - doesntimpact on my playing at all though!).If you think you could pull off an electrical storm like that I might be interested!

I've thought about that scheme on many occasions. I wanted to paint an Rx7 I had midnight blue with lightning. I'll work up asample amd post it Dave.

Thanks for your interest!

Yeah that does sound pretty sweet.

Sorry I haven't gotten to that Dave. Here are my latest projects:

Damn, wrong code. Try again:

You have to envisage the pick guard covering the cavity:

Another in the "Black Snake" series (this one with a black stripe down the front and horizontal black scales on the belly). This one is perhaps my favorite of all the Ibanez bodies; the 89' EX360 due to its more refined, less squared horns that come to sharp points:





Logo added to neck:


Serial and model numbers transfered to new neck with perfect high gloss finish:
