Retro Gaming Guitar Skins

Retro gaming artwork turns a plain guitar or bass body into a scene of pixel jungle ruins, leaping hooded assassins, masked ninjas in watercolour and soldiers standing in glowing embers. Each design comes as a high-gloss laminated vinyl sheet, 50×60 cm for a full body or 27.5×33 cm for a pickguard, with some in stock and most printed to order.

Two sizes, one design

The full body sheet (50×60 cm) covers the front and sides of any guitar or bass body in one piece. The pickguard sheet (27.5×33 cm) carries the whole design scaled down, ready to cut to a Tele or a Strat pickguard.

Every design here also comes UV printed on a copper-shielded pickguard, or in the box with a bound TL-style kit or body: the binding makes fitting the skin easy.

Common questions

Will a busy scene like the pixel ruins or a fighter fit my body shape?

The 50×60 cm sheet covers most guitar and bass bodies, so you can position it to keep the main figure or focal point between the pickups and away from the edges you trim. It helps to lay your pickguard or a paper template over the sheet before cutting to check where faces and details will land.

How do pixel art and watercolour designs look once applied?

The high-gloss laminate keeps hard pixel edges crisp and gives the watercolour and ember designs a deep, wet look, much like a painted finish. No clear coat is needed on top.

How do I care for the skin when I play a lot?

Wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid solvent-based polishes, which can dull the laminate. Keep the guitar out of strong heat, such as a car in summer, so the vinyl edges stay flat.
