rob you should send me that ol pickguard if you've no plans for it :D

looks actually fucking marvelous. i love it with the rosewood. and if you wanted the shittiest pickups you could find, you should've used the ones out of it.

just kidding, they were actually pretty good. looks great!

EDIT: mage, i think la gear got sued to many times by reebok and nike for ripping of their designs

The neck is from the run of chinese squier strats of which my very first guitar came, mine had that Bullet Series logo too. Smack dab in the middle of the 90s, up until whenever the Affinity series started. Mine was probably '95.

i loved that neck. the whole guitar was so loud unplugged. really great, true strat neck. i got that guitar for like $40 on ebay, and it's one of the nicest strats i've played.

finished gutiar. took photo

i went completely nuts with this gutiar....i put .10's on it. regular 10's not flats.

i figured all my guitars have 13's flatwound or 12 rounds....this one is going to play and sound unlike all my other stuff and force me to be creative when i play it.


yay.
