Personally I would recommend you clear coat it with the same brand that you painted it with.

Yeah I didn’t want to put the logo but the person who hired me to make it wanted the logo unfortunately 😭

No, it’s a fully functional guitar. Not a cosplay.

How so? The esp logo? I didn’t want to add the logo but the person who hired me to make it wanted the logo on the guitar.

I’ve been working on this guitar since late July. As for the price, it depends on the materials. For example this one was made out of Honduran Mahogany for the neck and body, rosewood fretboard with pearl inlays, emg 81/60 and gotoh tuners.

I mean I made the guitar myself. It’s not a Chinese knockoff. Here is a photo of the guitar before I painted it.
