  Details
Here we have a relic'd partscaster. This guitar started off as a regular American Fender Strat, but at some point someone did a relic job on it, put on a Warmoth neck, and switched the pickups to dimarzios. 
This finish on the guitar looks very worn, as was the intent of the relic I assume. Please look closely at the pictures to see all of the scratches/wear on the body. It appears as if someone took sandpaper or steel wool to a glossy finished, turning it to more of a flat/matte finish. The body is still smooth and comfortable and I really enjoy how it looks. 
The neck is a scalloped Warmoth neck. To clarify, the scallop is not aftermarket and was actually done by Warmoth. That being said, the scallop job is great! The neck is in good shape with some wear on the board and some minor impressions on the headstock. The frets have tons of life and the neck is straight. 
Everything on this instrument functions as it should. The tuners are smooth, the electronics work properly, the neck is straight... Condition
This guitar has a good amount of wear to it, but a lot of it can be attributed to the relic job. 
Most obvious is the wear on the body finish as noted above.
On top of this, the guitar has some small impressions.
There is a sizable chip on the back edge. 
The headstock has some impressions/dings. 
The hardware has some light tarnishing to it, as shown in the photos.
