There is a booming industry of after-market drum wraps. I didn't see a "brass" or "gold" in glossy finish with a quick search, but "chrome" finish is pretty common. These wraps are deigned to not interfere with the resonance of a drum shell, so I imagine a guitar would respond similarly.

Here's a good source on drum wraps:
