NGD: 1988 Nightswan Blue Sparkle

Always liked the Swans. Unfortunately they are too small for me to play. They look like a toy strapped on my shoulder. My '88 Baretta has similar wear on the back of the neck.

I had a little concern about that myself as I researched the Nightswan and read that the body shape was designed to be "12% smaller than a standard Strat shape". I am a stocky build at 5'9" 225lbs with a 48" chest and 36" waist but it's actually quite comfortable and I don't notice or think anything such as its a small guitar or it not feeling substantial when I play it.

Just want to add, I really like you taste in cars and guitars!

Whoever routed the neck single did an amazing job. Looks factory and it balances out the look of the guitar.

Thank you. I'm kind of "old school/classic" when it comes to cars...well...that and I'm old anyway having grown up as a kid in the late 60s/early 70s with American Muscle Cars being plentiful and relatively cheap. I wish they were now.

As to the neck pickup routing; prior owner from whom I purchased told said that Doc Pittillo @ The Guitar Doctor in Fountain Valley, CA did the neck pickup route and Jumbo 6100 refret. I would agree he did well as it was a nice clean factory looking route with shielding.
