Up for Sale...My favorite Yngwie canary yellow Strat with mods.  I've replaced the scalloped neck with an original 2004 USA Fender with rosewood and jumbo frets (Serial# DZ4176501).  I personally don't care for the feel of a scalloped neck.  The original Fender Strat bridge & tremolo has been replaced with a FCH Babicz Strat Tremolo designed by Jeff Babicz.  The action and intonation are simple to adjust and the sustain is fantastic. This bridge is smooth on the palm for greater playability as compared to palming the threaded screws of the original Strat hardware.  Search online for Babicz or "Full Contact Hardware" for more information.  (I have no affiliation with that company...just dig their stuff).        The "locking" tuners that came on the neck from fender were crap at holding the guitar in tune (typically uncharacteristic of Fender in my experience).   They have been replaced with a black set of tuners from Ibanez.  I've found these to be incredibly reliable and an aesthetic complement to the black bridge.  The body, pickups, pots, switches, etc. are all original to the Yngwie model 2012 (Serial# 61849).    There are nicks and chips in the paint and body and I don't wish to hide any of them.  I "play" guitars, I don't collect them.  If you are a collector (or a Fender purest), this may not be the one for you.  All the customizations were done purely for tone and playability.  I don't play junk and I don't sell junk.  I do love this guitar and hate to see it go.  The G&G hard shell case seen in the photos is included.     Thanks for your consideration.
