Permalink Beat Up Well Loved Stratocaster

Hey guys! A while back I was asking around about a new neck for an AV ‘59 Strat and I found one! Life got in the way for a few years and I never got around to posting my strat. It looked nicer back then, it’s since seen some gigging and quite a few jams in my garage in Louisiana where it was subjected to heat, humidity, my dog, and my Cystic Fibrosis sweat which took some paint off but it’s hanging in and playing better than ever!

That's a good looking machine. I'd be super tempted to splurge on a Spitfire tort guard or even just a passable modern production one but the mint looks sharp as well. And of course the neck looks right at home!

I'm a fan of that beast for sure.

Guitarist for Northern Tides from Hudson Valley, NY.

Thanks! I’ve been tempted so many times to get a tort guard, but I know I’d miss the green and I didn’t know about spitfire. I’ll have to check that out.
