I know AP has posted tutorials in the past of how they mod their instruments. Robert did a photo essay on how he modded Nathan's guitar a few years ago. What they did was sand down wood moulding and stuff like that and then glues them onto the instruments and then painted them in a distressed/patina style that they developed themselves.
My friend Molly Friedrich is the one who is responsible for Nathan's Tesla Powered Electric Guitar, and she actually modded a bass for another band which she dubbed the Elder Gods' Bass.
You can see some of what she's done here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/porkshanks/2119677831/in/set-72157616701004244) and here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/porkshanks/2119678871/in/set-72157616701004244). (This is not the Elder Gods Bass)
