      I know of a guy who makes actual glass guitars. Like, not acrylic guitars, literally glass body and glass neck. Ima search for a link right now. It's not a crushed one though. But it's made out of actual glass sheets, and the craftmanship that goes behind it is just crazy! He also cannot research anything because he is literally the only person I know who does that, so he has to figure it all out by himself.

    You do beautiful work. As a pro auto painter, I've done a handful of guitars and drums. You'd be able to get a slick mirror finish that makes your color really pop if you'd get a body shop to clear your guitar body with a proper 2k urethane and not use the spray cans. It would have MUCH better scratch, chip, and chemical resistance, and It'd cost you maybe $50. Well done, sir. You're inspiring!
