I keep wanting to get a new body for it but my sentimentality won't let me.
It really needs a refret too.

These days I'm firmly bonded to my Esquire, my DC TVY Jnr blatant copy, and lately (although yet to gig it) my Charvel San Dimas.
I'm a slag.
The neck on this Jap model is a decent handful so suits me just fine. Unfinished so I'm 'whizzy-er" than I ever thought I was.
Has the Duncan's, the neck '59 in the guitar is pure Kossoff. Rattled off Free's Mover on first plug in and Jesus, soloing on the neck unit, magic matey.
£500? Bargain as far as I'm concerned.
And can be had for less, though the spec I bought seems canny scarce- white, direct mount pick ups, chrome hardware.
I've chucked a push/push pot in mine to coil split it and it's so versatile now.The neck pickup sounds brilliant split.Some nice Hendrix tones there.
I think it was my forth guitar and the only one from my teenage years I still have. It wasn't great at first, needed a proper set-up but I was not happy with the one I paid for so I started learning to do it myself.
I loaned it out about 10 years ago but have had it back for the last 2
It still has its original paint but all the parts have been changed along the way. Its a great guitar, still doesn't feel like a Gibson but I wouldn't be without it

My first bonding guitar was a Sumbro Strat. It had a super low action, a maple neck and a light wood grain body.
It looked just like this one
.....and I've been debating getting a new body for it only this week but decided against it.
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.
