Looks hot!
Is there much volume difference when you switch to the bridge?
And does it still quack in pos 4?
Nothing to see here.

They're pretty even volume wise but theres significantly more gain when I hit the bridge :mrgreen: and yes all the good strat positions are still marvellous :mental:

White white would have stuck out like dogs balls next to all that off white/cream.

The nickel looks like it belongs because of the bridge and jack socket.

What have you got against dogs balls? I'm pretty sure JB himself is a big fan of them.

Thanks everyone, it’s the first time I’ve played it in ages and I’d forgotten how great a guitar it is tone wise and playability wise… now it’s the do it all guitar I’ve always imagined :-)
