so i was reading through this thread
and was like, fuck i wish my strat had a stripe or two..,
i mean i don't usually rock a strat

but i had picked up a squier strat with noiseless pickups in it back in november and it sits pretty much in my living room so i noodle around on it a little bit..
anyways..
i taped it off, grabbed a can of black spray i had sitting around from when i was last working on some zero cool stuff
and..
here are the pics.








alas.. boredom.

Looks pretty sharp

thanks buddy.

I love those radio knobs.

Am liking the stripes, good work.

so i traded a buddy of mine last night for his black strat guard to go on this
i put back on the cream noiseless pup covers
second tone pot is still connected, and set to where i like it
whoever had put in the noiseless pickups (before i bought it) did a fucking horrible route job to make it a swimming pool route,
kinda confused as it was orig routed for HSH but whatever, maybe they had HHH in it for a bit, who knows
here are the updated pics





i still haven't played around to much with this bullet strat, the neck needs a fret dress as the ends are pretty sharp, but i may have a better neck to put on it, i just need to pull the one off the cyclone i'm working on.

here is the super hip instagram/hipstamatic photo

That looks pretty good.. close colors,but anyways.

Are there that kind of angled (mustang comp stripish) stripes on stratocaster?

never seen a stock strat with comp stripes, but i'm sure that there are many people who have done it.

I wanted close colours make it kind of a "stealth" stripe, that and the only other spray i have at the moment is red, and that just screamed a no go for me.
