guitar?


Question Posted Tuesday April 20 2010, 9:38 am

19/f this is going to sound kind of dumb but what are some unique things i could do to my guitar to make it look like it's mine? I mean like what are some ways i could decorate it? It's an acoustic guitar, and i named it cinnamon lol i know its kind of cheesy, but just go along with it.

You really,really shouldn't go crazy with it- don't go all Taylor swift sparkles-please!! You're 19, so you'll want a mature style. Have a decrative strap, or put maybe just one meaningful sticker on there, like on of the people below me said. Keep it simple-the fingerprints on the frets and the smudges around the strings are enough to make it personal :]

I agree with Matt. Don't turn it into an art project.
Let me give you an example; my friend had a plain black electric guitar. On the back of it he stuck a sticker with his band logo, since it went well with the guitar and had a personal meaning. Then he bought a bright pink, fluffy strap for his guitar. Why? Because that is his guitar, adds a unique touch and stands out considering he is in a death metal band.

Hope you get the idea :)

Pee in it, no one will mistake it for theirs after that.


I kid. Please don't put stickers on it or gems or glitter or shit like that. This isn't arts and crafts time at camp. It will look tacky if you do so. Just take good care of it, buy a strap, and actually learn to use the guitar. It'll feel more like yours when it responds to what you're trying to do. When that happens, you're not going to have to name it or ruin the aesthetics of it to make it feel like yours.

You could put stickers on it, stick on gems, use colored plastic wrap and glue it down for a crinkled/color effect, sequins, ribbons, you could paint it, you can get a strap for it (maybe with your name or nick name on it) etc. You could peel the wrapper that says "cinnamon" on the cinnamon you find on your kitchen and glue it on, or even get a lot and make a collage out of wrappers.

Good luck,
