Here’s a rather nice paisley build I completed in July

Welcome back  
One thing that has always puzzled me (& to be honest, kind of puts me me off) about paisley tele's is why they have the pink splurge burst around the neck pickup?

It always puts me in mind of this...

@Kittyfrisk I do it as a nod to the pink models and especially on this one as the base colour of the paper is pink on silver

Fair enough, its good that we all have different opinions & views on what's 'right'.
For myself, it just distracts from the overall slightly kitsch loveliness 
Vive la difference

I’ve tried it with other colours but it doesn’t seem to work (for me). When you see it in real life it looks pretty cool, the pink of the paisley ties in nicely with the pink burst. There’s different colours of paisley available too so it doesn’t always have to be based around pink.

Looks great! I'm eyeing up a seafoam green strat body. Sure you did one a while back but can't find it. Kind of like these

Forgot I had this picture. Even though I took it recently I have so many pictures on file some dont get seen as much as other.

Think that may be my mates refin you did for him. Looks great but after a more greeny/blue seafoam. Really difficult colour to get right and seen so many variations. I'd want to see one in the flesh to be sure which probably means fender CS!

Howard? 

The sea foam I have here is pretty vibrant, it’s a tricky one to photograph. I think a large portion of the blame for the numerous “Shades” available out there is partially down to excessive use of photoshop. A colour can very easily be changed on a computer after the photo has been taken. 

I’ll spray a test patch for you later and send you some samples

Now, I can’t wait to see this built. This is heading off to its new owner shortly. It’s being paired with a rather lovely flamed maple shaft/rosewood board neck made by @Danielsguitars ;

Another one can be done no problem, I even think I have black on white paisley here going spare

I am EXTREMELY excited about my candy green strat. As an aside, is there a difference between cady green, and candy lime green?

My Jazzmaster build - love it.

This also put me off too. Would prefer it without the pink spray, maybe it’s a historic thing?
