Custom Paint by Ace of Sprays

We just got this back from Ace at Ace of Sprays http://aceofsprays.co.uk/ - it started life as a PRS style guitar which has flame maple top that was just laying around the workshop. Ace did a great paint job on it utilising the existing flame in the maple going under a faux granite finish. Here are a few pictures showing his great work on this guitar:

Horton Heat Guitar

Just finished this 335 style guitar for the Rev. Horton Heat - check out this link for more info:

We have done this guitar as a gift to the Rev - we dont have any endorsement deals etc. Horton Heat supported Motorhead in the USA last year and this was a way of saying thank you for the hospitality.

The guitar itself is a 335 style mahogany body / neck with a maple top - finished in black - ebony fretboard with no inlays, Les Paul style hardware with the 3 way switch on the upper horn. We fitted a nice set of Bare Knuckle Mississippi Queen Humbucker sized P-90's - CTS Pots and Orange drop caps.
