Well, I either had or was planning to get all those instruments anyway (wasn't sure about the Mustang until I watched K-On though), so I didn't really go out of my way to do this.

Depends on the instrument. Giita definitely took the most time, as there was the most to paint; the frets, fret inlays, nut, truss rod cover, tuning pegs, tone switch, and the Xbox guide button (black to cover the Xbox logo). Most of the time though, was waiting for the faceplate sticker to arrive, I ordered it ages ago :/

Mu-tan was a similar level of painting, though mainly different areas. The keyboard was easy, as it was five little buttons, that took about 2 minutes if you don't count the time it took for the black to dry for the white to go onto it. Honestly, it's not really that hard or time consuming, you just have to be someone who's careful and has an eye for detail.

The drums will be more annoying, as unlike the tiny areas that got painted on everything else, they'll need quite a bit of paint, both yellow and silver.

The best part is that none of the parts you use to play have paint on them, so very little will ever wear off :)

It's a shame I'm not a girl, I'd cosplay the hell out of this
