Hell yeah! That thing looks gnarly!

Lol. I’m surprised you saw that. That’s my daughter’s nickname. I’m going to put it back on the headstock.
OP is not, it would seem, without a sense of irony, as this is the least FenderStratocastery guitar I think they could have posted.
If you see the green on the far right, it’s a Surf Pearl Player.
Some of us are true gentlemen in the streets, but hide our freak at home.
PAFs ftw!
PAF?
Love the car plate pickguard!
Thanks! That was a tough one. I tried to use a dremel at first, but tin snips worked the best.
Did you curl the edges or something? Or there’s no need for it?
No, I filed and sanded them down.
You’ve betrayed your username!
How does it sound and play?
Sounds pretty grungey, but that’s exactly what I want. It shreds, must to my surprise. I thought it would have turned out a wall hanger considering I redid the wiring harness.
I’ve betrayed Fender years ago. They make sexy looking guitars, but I would argue that at the Player Strat/Tele price point, Yamaha makes better guitars. And Godin is a far superior guitar company comparing price points.
You’ve got it looking the part too, that worn wood is great
I would definitely like to get myself a Godin one day, they’re lovely instruments. Then again, there are a lot of guitars I’d like to get one day
I’ve never been a huge Fender fan personally, but my dad is and I will say that even they’re not my thing I do get it
To me it’s a staple. You gotta have ONE.
That looks awesome! How did you give it that wood plank look? Reminds me a bit of James Hetfield’s guitar that is made of the garage they used to record in.
Thanks! I took a circular saw and set the blade depth really low. Like 1/8". Then I used a nail set and pounded in what looked like nail holes.
Sick, you nailed it
