7VWH going black ??


Hi all 7VWH freaks- are anyone of you so good in photoshop or whatever to make a simulation of black 7vwh My friend have just bought one and he would like to have it repainted in black (just to swap white body and headstock to black)- everything else as in the original.

Purists- don't write anything here He's got a lot of cash, he found 7vwh a bit *****, glossy guitar, but plays great. So - maybe someone can make it black- just to see what it would be like.

I would never paint a VWH black. White rules black IMO.

Re: 7VWH going black ??


I'd keep the VWH as is and buy a DBK or you could even get a 555 BK and mod it.

It would be like me painting my PWH black which I'd never even think about doing but to each his own I guess.

Re: 7VWH going black ??


Both look amazing

I hope Ibanez is watching!!

I keep saying my dream guitar would be an RG body in black (quilt?) with a jem inlay and gold hardware, this would be one (very big) step closer!
