Well, I have 3 strats, and I have to thin the herd, because I need the cash. This thing is a partsocaster with an awesome lefty reversed neck, and a two tone burst body. Set of Lace Sensors (Red, Silver, Blue), and it also has a neck/bridge on switch in the form of a pull switch on the middle knob. It has Dunlop strap locks which I will include, and also it'll come with a gig bag. Looking for 250 plus shipping. Best guitar for 250 you'll find! Neck is a little flamey, too. Pretty cool! And it has locking tuners!!! I also put 5 springs on it, because I like a solid trem.

Here's some camera phone pics I just took. You can see there ahd been some not so professional routing done. If I had the time/motivation, I could clean it up with a forstner bit on my dad's drill press, but it's 250 bucks for an awesome guitar. It's not even really a cosmetic or functional issue.

Awesome axe. I'm assuming the body is alder. Where's the neck from? AllParts? Warmoth? How's the grip (thickness and shape) and frets on it?
 
Re: FS: Awesome Parts-O-Caster with Lace Sensors

Neck profile is a medium C much like current USA Standard strats. Fingerboard radius is 9.5". Frets are near perfect. As far as who made the neck, I can't remember. It was a little lesser known ebay seller. I am pretty sure it's not Mighty-Mite, as they stamp theirs with their brand name now.

I need another strat like I need a hole in the head, but dang I want this thing!

It's not like most other strats out there. That neck/bridge on switch gets tones you can't get with a stock strat, AND these lace sensors are freaking awesome. I considered putting them in my MIM strat, but I figured that was the draw of this guitar, so I left them. I will eventually make my MIM a John Frusciante strat, as I love what he does.

Are the locking tuners the ones pictured (Satin Chrome) or did you later install a black set of tuners? Also if the ones pictured are locking tuners what are they as they just look like Gotohs of some sort (of the non locking variety). I'd hit this but the 9.5" radius is turning me off. Everything else sounds positive.

They are satin chrome Schaller/Fender tuners. Those are the ones currently on it. The 9.5 inch radius doesn't really feel all that round. Let me know if you want it, because like I said, it might end up being parted out, and that will just let the mojo all dissipate... :(
