Here are some pictures of my finished Les Paul Epiphone swirl. The swirl is darker in person than in the picture. There are green lights under the pickups. I forgot to take a picture of it with the lights on before I gave it to a Luthier friend for set up.

321 swirl, looks really cool. nice job on the neck. did you use white as a base coat or a light green. i think they look better with less black and more green like yours. humbol? been wanting to do a green and black one but not sure if i should use white or green as a base. saw tbones video where he used a light green base and it came out great also. did you put the green in first or the black? i always put the darker colors in first but the black seems to give me the most trouble. looks great keep up the good work.

Thank you for the compliment. I used a white base coat. Humbrol was indeed the paint I used. I can't remember what paint went in first, but I usually do the darker color first like you.

About Me

My name is Tony and I am a Web Developer by trade, I created this site after I recieved huge numbers of emails about my GMC swirl YouTube video on how to swirl a guitar to look like a Steve Vai Ibanez Jem.

I have been a fan of swirled guitars since seeing the first GMC in the Ibanez brochure, unfortunatly I could never afford one so went about figuring out how it was done. When I started swirling I was living in Guernsey and I bought a mahogany Jem body which is the one in the first GMC video.
