Answer
Besides painting the guitar, you could try staining the body, especially if it has a beautiful nice wood grain.

Get a dark stain..like say walnut....a stain where you can remove the excess, depending on how dark you want the stain.

Then....use Tung Oil to hand rub into the guitar body for a durable and very beautiful finish. ( The warmth from your hands helps seal the oil into the guitar body)

It's a bit more time consuming, but well worth the effort and the results can be spectacular, putting most paint jobs to shame.
