I don't know what I'd kill you for, if the Yamaha semi-hollow or the Warmoth Tele

#22 Fender 'Classic Player' '50's Stratocaster



Another addition to the collection. This time a Fender 'Classic Player' 50's Stratocaster, with a few modifications made in the right-hand image. The changes are relatively few, just a change to a gold anodised aluminium scratchplate, a Wilkinson VS50MkII tremelo bridge and a roller string-tree. Things like pickup swaps (SSL-5/6, SSL-1/2) and shielding will come later.

As the light looked decent enough, I thought I'd shoot the latest acquisition and redo some of the ones I don't think I ever did any real justice to - I'm still not sure about the Korina SE, but it looks a little better than my previous effort. Without further ado then...

#23 Paul Reed Smith NF3 (the new one)



Warmoth 'Les Paul' - Braveheart

What bridge pickup do you have in the blue Tele? I have one similar as far as a Firebird minihum & I had a friend wind me his version of the Jerry Donahue bridge pickup. I had initially had a hot rail in the guitar but I had a love/hate relationship with the hotrail so I eventually swapped it out. I dont play it too much but nwhen I do I love it.!!

It's half of a Kinman 'Broadcaster' set. I've wondered about swapping that out for an SD Jerry Donahue, but it's never quite happened.

Very nice collection! It appears to rock a classic vibe

I must admit, I've never really considered it that way, but you're right, I don't seem to go in for the more unconventional aesthetic pastures...

I love Explorers and Flying Vs/Rhoads but conventional styles have grown on me over the years... I think the overall shape of a strat was boring to the young kid who couldn't play at all. Your collection has it's own personality though, it doesn't follow the old party lines of Fender vs. Gibson or Classic vs. Modern

OK, so nothing new here this time, but the sun was out and I couldn't find my original files I shot of this one back in 2008. Camera in hand then, here's a bit of a re-run of my Cort gb-94...

I came for the Warmoth Tele; stayed for the PRS 22 . I laughed, I loved, I cried. ( But mostly I cried).
