Vintage/Aged Relic Stratocaster/Strat Guitar
Thank you for viewing my listing:
Dakota Red Relic Strat guitar
This is a lovely guitar, lovingly put together over months and with all the right age related nicks and scrapes and scars. It's not a beaten to death with a chain relic; but carefully and sympathetically aged in every way from the cellulose paint to the plastics and everything in between.
*Two piece alder body (built by guitarbuild) finished in white undercoat; and then red colour coats. No clear coat, just as the originals were often not clearcoated either- so while the paint has sunk into the grain it hasn't really cracked in the way they might with a clear lacquer coat.
*Allparts neck, slightly re profiled on the back, and the rosewood join. Vintage 7 and 1/4 inch profile, vintage size frets which were levelled a couple of years ago. Clay dots. A very comfortable neck with a very beautiful flame to it and a nice dark rosewood.
*Kluson nickel tuners.
*Aged mint green pickguard which is a very close match to celluloid nitrate, and i must have used three or four on it before i was happy with the colour! It's not the ubiquitous pea green you'll see on so many.
*Large steel block tremolo and bent steel saddles.
*Alnico pickups, CTS pots and so on.
This really is a cracking guitar and utterly convincing.
I've done a lot of work on refinishing real deal vintage guitars, both fender's and gibson's and my guitars are all over the world now having been bought by players and collectors alike. Never had anything but surprise at how authentic the work is up close (unfortunately pictures never really capture the subtle details); and my work has always been compared right up there with the few people in this game that really know what they're doing.
This is a guitar that won't disappoint.Any questions feel free to ask.I will ship worldwide, but please email prior to bidding for a shipping quote so i can check the shipping costs.
Custom orders undertaken.
Refinishing also available.
