Looking for a recommendation for where / who to send an old Jaguar body to for a quality nitro paint job. Guitar has a crappy DIY white paint job at present. Glad they left the neck alone. Thinking something vintage-ish like Fiesta Red, though it does look kinda like tomato soup. I'm in NM.
Thanks!

Their stuff looks good and looks like they have knowledge of offsets/odd Fender colors/details.

Re: Refin suggestions
Copacetic has probably refinished a dozen things for me by now. Guy is cool as hell and does fantastic work.

I had Dustin at BloomDoom paint a body for me earlier this year and it could not have gone any smoother.

The solid color should be around $300-400. DIY is always an option.

Guitar mill no longer does refins. I asked more than once last year, no luck.Badabababa wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2024 5:34 amGuitarmill (Mario Martin)

Riggio quoted me $900 last year and it was extra if I wanted him to use NOS paint (he scored a ton of old 60s paint that is still good).
There’s a place in Whittier CA called Bravo Guitars that’s doing some great work.

HUH! This is great news. I just checked my emails with Shannon, this was back in December 2022 so I should email them again. She was pretty sure they'd never do it again so yay!Badabababa wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 6:55 pm
