No. But be careful not to fill the holes in the adjusters with paint.

That and I would not put paint on the saddle where the string touches the bridge.

Oh and if you remove it to paint it, don't paint the bottom because it is usually grounded this way.

You'll wear the paint off in short order, and it'll look terrible--unless that's what you're going for.
