Frank Verrilli - FV Custom Relic StratocasterPlease Read Below for FULL DescriptionThis guitar was built for me by Luthier Frank Verrilli who is an award winning builder selling his creations exclusively through Destroy All Guitars alongside of some of the finest builders in the world. In addition to building his own creations for the rich and famous, Verrilli also likes to create the best Relic guitars out there from existing parts he finds that meet his standards. He was proud enough of this build job to display it on his website under fvcustomguitars so you know this is a great one!Let me list all the pieces of this guitar as it will give you an idea as to why Verrilli's command such a premium over other wonderful Relic builders such as Nash or MJT:Fender Custom Shop Texas Special Pickups (w/ all Cloth Wiring and Fender Custom Shop Stickers)DeTemple Titanium Tremolo Block ($225 wholesale)Oak Grigsby 5-way SwitchCTS 250k Audio PotsK42Y-2 Paper-in-oil .047uF Tone CapacitorFender Highway One Body - Very light and resonantFender Licensed Custom Neck by Musikraft - Built to Spec for this GuitarOnce all the pieces were picked out, Verrilli then starts the relic process that rivals anything I own that came from the F Custom Shop created by some of the best Masterbuilders (yes, I own many and would be happy to share photos of a side by side comparison). The neck was custom ordered from Musikraft to the specs of a 10/56 (.880 behind the 1st fret and .980 at the 12th) with a wonderful U to V Shape. It is a single piece quarter sawn hard rock maple with rolled edges, 11/16 custom bone nut, 6105 Frets and a 9 1/2 fretboard radius. This is a large but very comfortable neck that tone just jumps from. Frank striped the paint off the original Fender Highway One Body to let the sound out, finished the new neck with a tinted nitro and then aged each and every part to look and feel like a 1956 well played Stratocaster with the exception of the DeTemple Aluminum Tremolo Block. I have to say that he accomplished what he set out to do. There is plenty of information about FV Custom Guitars on his website, YouTube and on the website of Detroy All Guitars. Please, take a minute to do some research as to why this is not just another "partscaster" being passed off as a custom built but actually a custom shop relic guitar that should be compared other builders such as Nash or MJT at a bare minimum. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like more information. It ships in a brand new padded Roadrunner Case.
