Haven't seen the use of gold leaf on many guitar. Here is what I did this afternoon:

That's interesting Ed, never thought about gilding. Don't forget to post photos after you do the final finish/buff - I'd love to see how it turns out.

That does look interesting Ed, should be stunning under finish.
I know a cello maker who has done some gold leaf on the back of her cello's. Aspen leaves falling down the back, they look great.
