Classy. I like the strip. It makes it look a little bit tuxedo, without being cheesey.

Nicely finished. The stripe is not to my taste, but as long as you like it that's all that matters.

mo is like 9 foot 8 or something, really tall fellow.
we didn't paint it.
i basically gave it to a car body shop and told them to paint it black and put a racing stripe on it like the older mustangs, so andrew and his father the owner of the body shop did the best they could from pictures, i was really suprised with how well it turned out.
the stripe looks pretty good for a "well it looks like it may be 2 inches wide here with half an inch of space here" type of deal.
he took a really long time to do but, but i think it turned out looking really good.
it sounds pretty good too, altho the pup is a bit more "shiny" then i normally prefer.

I was thinking the stripe didn't look good at that size, then the pic of him holding it shows that it works fine and looks classy. Good job.

Nice mo. I like the stripe, it transforms the look imo.. from just another black Fender to a cool shortscale. 8)

Yeah same, it looks a bit odd in the standard pictures, because I guess we're all used to the skinny competition stripes on the real deal, but in his hands it looks fine. Very nice work.

I like it. It looks debauched. The knobs were a good choice.
