First round of paint

Here's the first round of paint. Start with solid black lacquer (that's what Eddie used). You might have a hard time finding lacquer paint; auto parts stores are a good place to look.

After the black, it's time to tape it off for the white coat.

I layed down the thick pieces first and then cut the fine pieces and added them.

Here's the image I used as a template. This is the Frankenstrat in it's original form before Eddie added the red paint.
