Anyone know a guitar painter in Los Angeles


Thinking about getting my RG565 body refinished. Warmoth offers to do it for 185 bucks, that's not too bad, but damn, how hard is this? When I was a kid I stripped down my RG560 to the wood with some acetone, but never got around to painting it.

You guys know anybody in LA? What's all this I hear about spray paint, I don't think I want to go that route. Maybe one of you could do it for a reasonable price?

Do they use car paint? I mean, if I could get it to bare wood, couldn't I just have a car painter spray a couple of layers on it?
