    No one does that kind of stuff here i think. You will need to take it to an artist or car painter. Or just slap on some decals

    There are loads of ways to paint a guitar...just do a search of custom paint jobs on google you'll find one to your liking. I personally like the EVH frankenstein one. I actually painted a broken down cheap ass strat to look like that..not as hard as it seems to do.

    Check it out

    Its damn simple actually. Strip the paint off your guitar...then add a coat of primer...paint it all white...use tape and add any design...paint red over it. Remove the tape and presto you have a frankenstrat...

    Just gotta be patient thats all...i did it in a hurry so it has'nt come out that well...did'nt even finish it off with lacquer..
