Stickers On Guitar

When I was young I went backpacking around (mostly Eastern) Europe with two friends. We saw 13 countries in a month on a single interrail ticket with very little money. We had agreed to travel as lightly as possible but of course they both bought bloody full size guitars on the first day of the trip in Prague! One of them bought stickers in every place we visited and plastered his guitar in them. I've never put stickers on any of my instruments (although one of my ukes from the 50s has a rare sticker on it) but that guitar my friend stickered stuck in my mind. Pun intended. He eventually lent that guitar to his sister who 'left it in a house somewhere' :angry:

 

A few years ago my Father gave me his guitar which is the one shown here. The problem is if I want to play a six steel string acoustic I will always play my Taylor GS Mini and there are several other  instruments ahead of this one I would rather play so this guitar is not getting much love. At the same time I won't give it away or sell it so today my niece, nephew I covered it in stickers. This does effect the tone but I don't care. I thought I would run out of space but it turns out there is room for more.

I started playing bass in 1986 - my first bass I treated like a china doll. I would see other people with stickers on their guitars and feel envious that they had the "courage" to do it. I guess I'm a "purist" for stock things.

 

I recently bought a bass for the purpose of stickering - I still can't bring myself to do it - it is actually the second bass I've bought for that purpose, the other one I played for 15 years and sold it without ever putting a sticker on it.

 

It's funny because one of my favorite videos from the wayyy back was Alvin Lee and Ten Years After at Woodstock with stickers on his guitar...
