The pickguard idea is good ... but, to show solidarity, how about a pickguard with the Japanese Flag: the rising sun.

How about getting someone to airbrush the famous pictuer of The Marines raising the U.S. flag at Ira Jima during the 2nd WW.

Well it may be down to lacking knowledge, it may be down to me having a totally different cultural background, it may be because I am a bit thick, but maybe someone can help me out understanding the thread: What is it about?

(honestly, I don't mean to mock or anything, I'm just a bit slow sometimes)

Sorry for asking a silly question! :oops:

Thanks

He wants to show solidarity with his uncle and the people of Japan by placing something symbolic on his guitar, so he's asking for suggestions.

Not trying to be rude, but your he's are bothering me :P the original poster is clearly a girl....

Get back on topic.
How about getting a pick guard painted with your own personal message? Or, you could place a sticker of the Rising Sun and a sticker of the USMC emblem on your guitar and have a ready answer prepared for anyone who asks about the significance.

What about a dragon? I mean it could be a great looking guitar to use in the future yet it would have a deeper meaning than just that.

Do correct me if I'm wrong but dragons are significant in Japanese culture correct?
