, and I'm also thinking about doing the reverse color key thing (you know, white keys being black, black being white (or some other color maybe...). It's also worth saying that it's one of the old Yamaha pianica models, and the majority of the shell is made from some sort of metal (all of it is metal except for the end pieces, and those are plastic).I'm thinking of going with some shade of pink for the shell and/or the black keys, and black for the white ones. Inspired by the drum kit that Jim Sclavunos used in Grinderman.
I'll probably be using some spray can paint from Ace or something for this, but I'd like to get some input from you guys on how I'd actually go about painting it.
What do I do to prep the parts? Some light sanding?
With the keys, should I make sure to stuff something into where the things attach to them so they'll still fit? Should I worry about the paint adding enough to the size of the keys + shell to block their movement?
Also, it doesn't have the strap that's meant to go on the back for you to hold when playing, so what would you guys recommend for remedying that?
Some pics:
It doesn't seem to mute the sound or anything if I block those four angled slots on the back, so I'm thinking I could hopefully attack a strap to those?
