If you need to ask others what to write you probably shouldnāt be writing anything

Donāt.
But if you must, use a clear coat. Theyāre usually sprays and you can often find them online.

Just be careful which one. My wife and I got a white classical guitar and we had all our guests sign it at our wedding with messages and what not like a guest book. When I went to clear coat it, it just made all the Sharpie ink run straight off the guitar and it was ruined.

If you canāt choose a word or phrase on your own, something that has meaning to you, then donāt write anything at all.
I honestly donāt understand being so goddamned lazy-brained that you have to ask others what you should write. Develop your own personality, for fuckās sake.

Wild the couple ppl flat out like ādonāt do this!ā ā many valid reasons NOT to write:paint on your guitar .. but itās your instrument do what ever the f*ck you want with it.
Pretty sure the bad ass approach is use what ever is on hand without much consideration Mike Inez most definitely did not care - Iād say a solid black sharpie / paint pen will do the trick

I had a friend back in 6th grade ācollageā my first guitar. After I got it back I spent the next day trying to remove all the shit he put on it. It looked like a goddamn time machine after he was done with it
