READ THE FULL AD, Note that the neck has been changed from the previous listing. There are still a few pics of the old neck on here. Currently it has the reverse headstock warmoth neck on it. Also note i am selling this locally cheaper on Los Angeles C L. If it does sell there first i will take down this ad. Also if you want either the neck or the body only you can write me and i will part it out if i am made a good retail price offer for either. I have here one of the sweetest looking and sounding warmoth builds you will ever lay hands on.  I will go down the specs of it for you.* 2 piece Alder body, brownish Tobacco burst, string thru body hardtail bridge* Fender custom shop 54's neck and middle pickups* Seymour duncan SSL-5 bridge pickup * Warmoth pickguard, high quality electronics* Neck is a reverse headstock , fatback warmoth, 6150 frets, warmoth radius, vintage style tunersThis guitar sounds great. I really learned a lot about tonewood from owning this one and i really find that Alder begets the sweetest tone. The SSL-5 is another important part of the tone. I think it is probably the most perfect bridge sound for a strat. The reason being is it has the definitive strat sound, with sparkle, high end treble extension or "bite"  while still sounding smooth and 3D. But it has more of it. This pickup was not on my radar previously because i worried it might sound modern and dumbed down. To my ears it sounds vintage correct just with more authority, sustain and ability to create gain in an amp. No strat detail or characteristics are lost. Other high gain strat pups i have played like Lace or EMG have that problem. They have power but do not sound like a strat.  The neck is a beefy warmoth fatback, little to no fretwear, very little playtime at all on it. It has vintage open faced tuners. And bare with me but i am unfamiliar with them and struggled to get the small e string on it it broke. So it has new strings with a missing E. So if you are familiar with the subtle nuances of stringing to vintage tuners all the better.This guitar will I ship fully insured via Fedex.Thanks for reading!
