Look what I got....

New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

I'm sure this will be great when you finish it.
I really don't know. I have a buddy that does 3D printing. I was thinking of getting my name made as an inlay or have a whole veneer made for the headstock.

I'm sure you'll get it sounding and feeling really good anyway.

I think it'll be easier than the gold sparkle strat. But fuck if I know. This is not my specialty. :lollers2:

As long as there's nothing fundamentally wrong with the geometry of the neck and body you should get it playing really well... even if you do have to refret it, put on a new bridge and nut.

It already was playing good before I stripped it. The frets and nut were already done. New tuners, a Mutt P90 and new pots. I didn't use it live but it got recorded quite a few times.
