Show your stickered up guitars!

Post by X-Ray Spex » Fri Jun 03, 2022 10:39 am

I never was a stickers on guitars kind of person.

But.

I got a free Mr Sparkle sticker with a recent T-shirt purchase, and my Electrical Guitar Company Tyranny was looking really bare.

I'm seizing the opportunity... Is someone in the US (or maybe Australia?) planning to order stickers from RedBubble? There's some I wanted to buy, for my laptop and my guitars, but shipping to Singapore is a whopping $30, as opposed to like $5 in the US. They must ship them in a gold-plated box because, as everyone knows, stickers are fragile and definitely not flat, regular enveloppes are out of the equation here. So, I'm looking for a proxy, who could ship them to me... :ph34r:

I hate that shit. It's always from the States too. Must be something to do with their automatic USPS calculators because it's always something abhorrent like $30+ to ship a fucking screw or sticker or something else pathetically small. I can ship a fucking VIBROLUX REVERB from Massachusetts to London for $220 in 3 days but it's $60 for a pedal? GTFOutta here.

I shipped an amp power transformer from here to OSG'er I Love Sharon Foo for $20, fully tracked and insured so something is definitely up with it going the other way.

All of mind have stickers on. Most notable is my old reliable JM...

It's actually off getting a long-overdue refin at the moment so all those stickers are off and in the bin. Time for a new lease of life for the old thing

My old '71-ish MIJ Voxton LP copy. Thomas Organ Co awfulness, but it worked.

I'm sure some Fender dealer in '64 looked at the new Duo-Sonic II and thought, "That's not a Duo-Sonic. That's a Mustang".

pretty sure I started a thread like this already about 10 years ago, might've just been offsets tho.
worth searching for there was a few bangers on there.

Love that Strat Arthon!

Here's a prototype I made, that is all stickers. I'm planning to do this again on another new shape soon.

My Jaguar has accumulated some stickers over time, beyond the one covering the neck pick-up hole in the pickguard:

My Jazz Bass has always had some, used to have more but they started peeling so a load came off and random spray paint went on.

I'm not one for stickers usually, but I will use one sometimes if I find a guitar too boring looking or if there's holes to be covered.

I just rebuilt my very first bass, and it had a hole were the bridge pickup volume pot used to be :

International shipping is financially so unpredictable sometimes. I remember selling a tremolo pedal for around $100 on ebay and figured $20 should mostly cover anything worldwide for shipping. Ended up paying near $150 for shipping to somewhere in SE Asia as the only available service was Overnight Air. Lost my ass on that one.
