Well, I think custom pickguards are fine, but I'd never put stickers on my strat. It's a Mexican strat, but still is too beautiful to do that to.

Only guitar I would put a sticker on is a Rock Band or guitar hero controller, which technically is not a guitar >_>

I don't even like fingerprints on my guitars so I'm with the "Case yes, guitar no" camp.

Merry Christmas!

Never on my American stratocaster HSS

But i have cheaper guitars like a modded squier mini which will be covered full of sticker soon . im mostly playing pop punk & punk rock and i like a guitar full of stickers .

i don't personnally compare stickers to "smashing a guitar" . I have a big respect for every piece of gear i own ( i dont jump on my distortion pedal , my guitar are not beated up , im not the rebel teenage punk rocker who doesnt give a S*** about anything , i don't share that angry teenager behaviour ) . every piece of gear i own is in mint condition .

so on a cheaper guitar , i dont see anything wrong of covering it . and with goo gone , you can easily remove them without hurting the paint job . but i wouldnt do it on a 500 + guitar .

even malmsteen has smashed guitar ( probably cheaper model than his signature ) in his career for the show . and im sure nobody has more respect for his instrument than him .

but i wouldnt smashed one , but stickers , i think it look good . but one random sticker is ugly .. a pile of them look good .

I have one sticker on the backplate of my Strat. It's only there because,

1. It's vinyl and it'll easily peel off when I want it to.

2. It's on the backplate which can be easily replaced if it gets messed up.

I've thought about putting a "custom" sticker behind the bridge like SRV's, but I think I'll just save that for another guitar. Plus I think the black and white musical notes strap is an obvious enough SRV tribute. Anything else and I'd be a Vaughannabe. :lol:

I have only one guitar out of my many that have any type of "sticker" on it.

Generally i would NEVER put a sticker on any of my guitars, just the cases. But I have the ESP truckster and I did put a vintage pin-up girl on the back of the guitar, it seem to really match the guitar nicely.

So i think it depends on the guitar, your taste and how ugly or dumb the sticker may be.
unless you are in a punk rock band or are Anthrax then tone and looks don't matter so give'r

here's mine
