NGD: "Seriously, another one?" -the wife

[Ayrton]

I told ya I was knocking out all these over due projects, and here is the next one.

Fiesta Red relic, quartersawn neck, MJT paint, Seymour Duncan SSLs...

I have one more Tele relic coming up, and then that is it for a little while.

That's awesome! Looks great.. and a pretty sweet relic job. I don't like them too relic'd, but subtle is sweet.

Two brothers?

Two brothers?

The story of my life... not being able to say "when".

I wanted to build a "Jimicaster' reverse thing, and I could not decide between maple or rosewood, nor could I settle on a color.

So I built two...

What is even sadder is I already have a blonde reverse strat I built back in '06.

The parts for these builds have just been sitting, and I am blowing thru them as fast as I can.

The pickguard and knobs should be yellower to match the reliced body.

The flash makes them look cleaner/whiter than they are. I used Parchment, and then scuffed and nicked the plastic. I would rather it look slightly "underdone" than "overdone".

Fiesta Red is one of my favorite looks on a Strat. That's a beauty

Re: NGD: "Seriously, another one?" -the wife

I see a lot or relics with a warn edge, right beside the pick guard. It looks pretty good, but I wonder how that particular spot would get warn down on an actual well used guitar.

That's soooo good! Another winner. I love your floor as a background too.
BTW I'm modeling a Charvel CS order off your beautiful blue rebuild. Cheers!

Has a very distinct "cocked wah" sound. Very RHCP (or at least that is what I think of when I hear it)...

I like it more and more as I try different things with it.

Re: NGD: "Seriously, another one?" -the wife

That sure looks very tasty! Love the reverse headstock. It's a pity they're not more common on production guitars.

I want them both. I'd call this one Jimi Knopfler.
