Awesome! A good Strat is tough to beat, and those JVs are known to be great.

Soft V neck, AVRI bridge, Tex-Mex pickups. So, it's got the upgrades I would likely be doing on a standard MIM.

I put two of those pickups and an Antiquity Texas Hot into a Fender Classic Player Stratocaster. Made the guitar slightly less ferocious than the Fender Fat Fifties set but, overall, more usable.

Pretty sure I've read JV uses flat wound 10s. SRV used an 11 set with heavy E strings, 11, 12 or 13 and 58.

It's not the cement dusty that's the problem. It's the dogs and their kennel that brings in yard dust.

Cool. Fade-to-Black. Is that whole rig powered by that battery charger?

It is a Lincoln wire feed welder.
The truss rod is an interesting story. 2 owners ago, they didn't know what was going on with the setup. They had the truss rod changed. Pretty nuts that someone didn't check first to see if it actually needed that work done. But, it works, and the adjuster is easier to access, so I'm not too worried about it. I may switch it out for a bullet type truss rod nut eventually, though.
Fret leveling and crowning tools are on the way, so soon enough, I'll have it all set up nice, and it'll get some real love.
