Cool. The body actually looks a lot similar to a 64 strat I once saw. The off-white top coat was coming off in large peels just like that.

But did the neck look like a piece of untreated deck wood? :blackeye:

Re: Oh my...

at first, I thought it must be a 50s or 60s strat, but no, it's just a recent American Standard.
there's a difference between "relic'ed" and just plain abused

considering it's on ebay, I'm surprised the seller didn't try to hype it as a "collector's item"

Wow.. if you could bring THAT back from the dead, you would have nothing but my utmost respect. It'd sure take a lot of work/patience.

Re: Oh my...

you know whats even more fun? me and my friends buy the cheapest peace of crap solid bodies we can find(last one $5)and take turns smashin it, lighting it on fire and beating it with misilaneous objects. Nothings quite like the feeling of standing in the street and throwing a guitar as high as you can and watch it hit the ground and snap the neck in half!!! :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

HOW COULD YOU?! You're supposed to do that ON STAGE! :smack: :laugh2:

Re: Oh my...

It's a recent Mexican standard, the bridge has vintage style saddles, and skunk stripe neck, not old or a vintage RI.

Re: Oh my...

That would be a cooul project, all you need is a set-up & some strings, viola! (might be better doing that the other way round though, strings first).
