I simply couldn't resist...

I just HAD to take this one home...







And I'm gonna mod it, better tuners, three ply pickguard and shielding the whole thing.

Very nice, but I'm curious. If it needs all those mods, what made it irresistable?

That is indeed a great colour. It looks great with that neck. May I ask what you paid for it?

I'm curious, is that an early 60s RI?

Nope it's a Squier Bullet Strat and it set me back a measily 100 bucks.

I gave my little blue Squier a set of serrated teeth...



I had this loaded pickguard with two Duncan Designed humbuckers which are based on the Duncan "Invader" humbucker lying around and it dropped into the little Squier without modifications to the body whatsoever.

It barks like a rabid dog and bites like a great white Shark. I'm itching to take this one to band rehearsal tomorrow and try it on my stage set up.
