Global/teisco 60's Body

[Strat2290]

I recently came across an old Global electric body from the 60's. I was looking for some feedback from people that may have had experience refurbishing these. I was thinking about stripping it down and refinishing it, changing out the pots, input jack, switches, etc. I'm pretty much starting from scratch. Is it even worth it, or should I just clean it up and sell it?

Thanks guys,

Tommy

PS- I'm not sure how to upload the pic. It looks like an offset smaller stratocaster in sunburst.

This forum doesn't host pictures so most of us use Photobucket to host them and then link/paste paths via the image functionality of this particular forum software.

IMHO most old guitars will be significantly better after some TLC. Will it increase or decrease the monetary value of the guiar? Hard to say. Will it make you a more proud person? Probably. Will it get you hooked on guitar buidling/restoration? Most likely. So be warned!

If you cannot get pictures up try to get more info about model names etc and maybe post a link to similar guitars as that will help to understand what you got there.

And of cause: welcome to the forum
