CrazyChester Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Its a Strat with a Clapton mid boost, Sperzels, Tonerider Pure Vintage PU's and a Gibson Goldtop finish. I played it tonight at a gig and it sounds and plays great. I'm also building a Gibson Firebird and a Hollow Bodied set neck Tele. Here's a few Pics.

dpm99 Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 I love that headstock. Nice work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyChester Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I'm making a Goldtop pickguard By spraying goldtop paint on the back of a clear strat pickguard. It will have a 1/8" cream pinstripe around it edge. I'll post a pic when I'm done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Hm. Personally, i would leave the white pickguard on the gold body. It looks great that way. I think that's part of the Strat "aesthetic", the contrast between the body and pickguard. (Except on white bodies I guess.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I don't like the gold on gold I'll just have to put the white one back on and build another strat for the gold pick guard. Maybe black and gold.
