Hi We’ll bring your Japanese wave concept to life directly on your guitar body and headstock, matching the reference image and your finish. I’ve spent the last 10 years solving exactly this type of problem, custom wood artwork that bonds cleanly, looks vibrant, and wears well. We’ll prep the wood thoroughly, create a precise layout, and paint in layers (primer/base, wave gradients, crisp linework, then clear coat) so the design stays sharp without smearing or peeling. We’ll also handle masking for hardware areas, verify placement and scale on the body and headstock, and deliver a polished final finish. Best regards, Zeeshan
