WTB: Partscaster Strat

Zoolooter

Looking for something thats been put together with a bit of love and attention to detail, preferably with aged parts and a nitro finish. Also a soft V or something approaching a V profile wouldn't go a miss. I know its a long shot, but there might be something out there.

@Zoolooter ;
Any use?
Guitarbuild Swamp Ash body (£125) very thin auto paint finish with thin lacquer
Allparts Vee neck finished in Tru Oli (£145)
Wilkinson Steel block trem (£35)
Aged gold Alloy scratchplate (£25)
Vintage tuners (£35)
Bare Knuckle Sinner at the Bridge (£78)
Bare Knuckle Mothers Milks at the Middle and Neck (£130)
CTS pots (£18)
Gen Fender Switch (£13)
Gen Fender string tree (£7)

I built this a while back and applied a very thin finish so that it would relic, the body wood is quite soft and has a few dings and asmall chip oit of the back, might not be your cup o tea. In brackets are the cost I paid for each item used.....

I have no idea what its worth but there are some quality bits there......its sounds great, 12th fret action is about 1.8mm nut action is good, no fret wear, truss rod works....
Ive come to realise that deep down I'm a Tele person.......
If of interest message your email and I will send more photos...

I would be willing to sell the guitar minus the loaded scratchplate if that would help.....

Thanks for the offer. Looks like you've put a lot into it. I'll pass on this occasion  as I'd have to change quite a bit on it.

cheers

Check the orange one and the Ultra one.
Necks and all parts are genuine. Just replaced the bodies for ash.

When you say parts caster, do you mean a Strat- or Telecaster?

I have a white, rosewood board Bacchus BST62, no decal model, which I might be up for selling. I rarely use it even though it's a fine guitar. It's more a fuller C profile, though.

Haha!

Thinking of selling the one at the bottom. Deluxe ash butterscotch.
