i'm getting a bit trigger-happy with spray paint, customizing pickguards, etc.
i love my Fender Super Champ XD, but never really cared for black tolex and the whole look. I also use it with another bass amp taking the simulated "line out" into the bass amp's power section. sounds good, stacks well, doesn't look too good.
i like blonde amps, tweeds, orange, anything that looks either retro or "different".
my current favorite guitar is an orange archtop, so i thought: why not spray-paint the black tolex of my amp? I guess I could do either blonde or orange - tweed wouldn't look right.
i'm wondering if anyone's tried it and how it sticks to the tolex. I'm also concerned that it might wrinkle or otherwise deform it, depending on paint's composition?
i think i'm gonna go for orange, because blonde would look better with gold hardware (like crate palominos).
thoughts? pics?
