factory5150 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 I just got done finishing this guitar for a customer. Came out really good, I am just waiting for the neck to settle before I give it a setup. Specs: 2 piece Northern Ash 1 piece 3a Flame maple neck Wilkinson tremolo Fender 57/62 reissue pickups (killer by the way) Graphtech nut and string tree Gotoh tuners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanthus Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Came out really nicely! Good color, and I like the matte pickguard, it's a nice touch. If I may, though. What makes this different from a regular Strat, save a hardware/pickup change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original plan was to airbrush the body like the fuselage of an airplane but for one reason or another my friend changed his mind. I still think the outcome is pretty good although it looks like SRV's #1 with a maple neck. Up close the pickguard is actually faux brushed aluminum. Thanks for the kind remarks!
