Thanks @thorpy6, never had a proper cs before and most strats just didn't do it for me. But as soon as i held this one in the shop it glued itself to my hand and I couldn't let go!

Lol the fire place was being thrown out by someone up my street so I gave it some tlc and we'll as you can see it came out quite nice :-)

Neil

Absolutely gorgeous!

Seafoam green (looks a bit more like surf from your pic) and poodle tweed case cannot be argued with.

Congratulations.

xmrchi

@Neil thanks bud, I will be sleeping in that case tonight!

Really superb - I think a fireplace is an essential focal point in a room.

Lovely guitar btw - especially if you can trim that extra fret off!

Iamnobody

Nice NGD - I like the littleguitarshop he set up my SG very well.

xmrchi

Haha thanks @richardhomer I totally agree people seem to see the TV as a focal point, not here my good man!
I didn't even realise it had the extra fret! I'm still in awe if the bloody sound this thing makes, I will never bad mouth fenders again!

xmrchi

@Iamnobody I was saying he also makes his own pickups, if I ever need some I'll def give him a go.

GuitarMonkey

Nice, but it's Surf Green.

TonyR

Nerine

Can't beat a CS Strat.

Philly_Q

It's lovely, but I'm really surprised by the 22nd fret!

Niallmo

That's very nice indeed. Would love to play a 7.25 to 9.5 compound board. I think that's an excellent feature.

Nunogilberto

Beautiful guitar. Proper GAS.
