I find the thought of wood burning interesting. I never considered it but it seems like it could work fine on a lightly sanded guitar just as long as you weren't using a really powerful one like the calligraphy wood burners. I think those might be able to burn right through a top. When it comes to painting I think that you have to make sure you keep the coat light regardless of what kind of paint you use. Pretty sure a thick coat of paint would affect the sound quality. Of course how expensive the guitar is, would affect the way I'd approach decorating it. Those are my thoughts but I'm no expert. I feel like guitar makers would have a more conservative opinion on all of this. I'm def gonna try wood burning a guitar. Thanks for the inspiration. :) Glad you liked the guitar Susi!

I am thinking of doing a wood burn design on mine and came across this post while researching. Mine is a satin cedar top and can't find any info about how well it would take to painting, burning awesome!
