center stripe: 1/2" or 12.7mm
thin stripes: 1/4" or 6.35mm
spacing: 1/8" or 3.18mm between stripes

Ask for Mr Pequesso.

THanks for the link. I have a cutter plotter so I just drew up the stripes and cut them from white vinyl . came out pretty cool. Photobucket is down so photo may not show up till later

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet. Where'd you get the body from?

Very nicely done.

Marko,

Wanna buy a mint (As in color) Mustang style guard that was made for my old deceased refinished cyclone?

See a pic.

The guitar is a Squier Cyclone, that I recently picked up at a great price. I love the blue , So I sanded and painted the headstock to match. I will add photos when it's finally together.

Dude, you may find yourself some easy income with those things. Can you do any color? How do they stick, and for how long?

i'll confess. i know nothing about guitars. whats the deal with the competition stripe? where does it come from?
noob etcetc.

I can do any colour Provided I get that colour vinyl .. I only have white now. As far as stick, the stuff I used is cheap stuff, I should be able to get some of the good 3M vinyl next week I hope. I didn't put em on properly as far as the spacing I just eyeballed it.
looks cool.

looks cool.

looks like there is a bigger space between the bottom stripe and middle. i did vinyl graphics for almost 5 years with plotter cut vinyl and i've used vinyl for comp stripes before. but with how i abuse my guitars, it's the first thing to get chewed up playing shows.

3M Vinyl IS better than cheap stuff. and it should stay stuck for years if you dont go picking at it.

it does look good on that cyclone though. cobalt blue with white stripes. my ideal color combo if i were building an old ford falcon.

Lolz

It is a cool guard! Too bad I could never get the proper neck for the guitar, so I ended up just getting rid of it. It was the best looking Cyclone ever It was my Fender Tribclone.

Squier musicmaster neck? I assume squier cyclones are gibson scale? I had no idea they would fit.
