Shit V to Less Shit V

Started with a piece of shit like this:

Sanded and lazily painted with flat fucking black (because i luv flat black).

Installed Planet Waves Auto Trim Tuning Machines, Seymour Duncan Distortion Hambacker, and Ernie Ball COBALT Strangs (10-52).

Thing fucking rules now, kinda.
this is my first paint job, i feel good about it even though i only did one coat and didn't wait long, so it has like scratches and shit in it already. i am gonna beat it up so it doesnt' really matter.

I kind of like black/red burst, but it does look weird on a V with no pickguard.

That's you playing? Wow, you really rip.
