Fly Concert Mike Learn Artwork

Post by marti »

This is my 1999 Fly Concert(I think, not sure what the difference is with a Bronze).

It was in a little rough shape when I bought it, dents, dings, back repaint by hand,....

I reached out to local Colorado airbrush artist, Mike Learn, sent him photos of the guitar and some wheat fields and asked him to work his magic.

Mike also builds guitars so he did a great job fixing all of the little dings and dents. If you know Mike's work you know this a little out of his normal themes but he took it on and I could not be happier.

Everything you see was airbrushed. https://mikelearn.com/

It looks great, especially with the fretboard. It sure is a one of a kind.

Does the painted fingerboard hinder playability on the fretboard?

The fingerboard has been clear coated, so it is very smooth and easy to play.
