NVGD - Finally!

peteri · November 2016

After annoying half of this forum - here is is, my 1966 (refin, new tuners) strat.

Very impressed with New Kings Road Guitar shop, nicely old fashioned.

Strung with 11's (Eb tuning I'm not mad!) - love it.

Will need a refret in a year or two, but the price was worth it.

Bridge pickup is a beast!

That neck looks like it needs a good scrub - filthy

Lovely- what's not to like?

Original grey backs in it?

Perfection!

That looks the business. (I wish the '66 came with a small headstock though, but that's just me.)

Lovely! Great case too :-)

Was in New Kings Road a few weeks ago - couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating.

Enjoy!

They're great in there - when I demo'd it (mainly on a JCM 800 combo), they said turn it up as loud as you like.

And then one of them put ear plugs in.

Loved that!

Rosewood board, nice.
I like the patina on the neck.

Whereas, for me Oly white + Rosewood Board+CBS stock is the perfect combo.

Not that I'd refuse a pre CBS one if someone was trying to force it onto me you dig ?
