Where to get paisley paper

[Rumrunner24]

Does anyone know how I could either get my guitar painted/airbrushed or  where some paisley paper to do it my self ? Obviously I would like do it myself because I assume it woulds cost a small fortune to have someone else do it.Im still a noob so I dont even know where to start. Heres a few examples http://www.mylespaul.com/forums/members/cross-roads-albums-guitar-picture1167-dcp-1757.jpghttp://www.jvguitars.com/images/Tokai%20paisley%20tele%20CFLay800.jpg

find a design you like and print it onto transfer paper, easy to do but have a couple of practice goes on something a bit less expensive.

There's a learning curve to this kind of project, but it's not undoable. Have a look here for information: http://www.projectguitar.com/. I haven't been there for a few years, but there used to be a whole tutorial on just this type of project.

I was forced to wear paisley pattern PJ's as a small child** and you actually want to do this to your guitar?!?!!!

Lay off the acid, man!  ;)

You're from Scotland? Sheesh. At least your folks never made you wear a dress. :-P

Nah, I just live in Scotland. :)

Prince recently played a guitar that was "wrapped" by a car body shop. You might look into that cos they print the design for you.

 

Here it is:

I have done guitars like this but most people use fabric. You can go to any craft store and get it and use MOJ POJ and then clear coat, sand (wet sand) and repeat....

[candyflipper7]

Also you can research covering an electric guitar with fabric or rock t shirt. Pretty cool application.

I think the originals were done with wallpaper. Fender did the telecasters as a joke in the late 60's and they caught on. If you can get an original, i know they are worth big bucks. There is one on e-bay for $12,000 if you have some extra cash just laying around.

Apples and oranges. If you want to make that tired old gag, at least get it right and call it a skirt.
