Ibanez Electric

This guitar was built in the 80's and the finish aged to a awful pale yellow.  The owner wanted to update the finish to a dark Blue 

Sanded and ready to spray

The Owner of this Ibanez wanted a new chrome pick guard minus the middle pickup. Basically this is the process , it's not a short easy task.
