The evolution of my main Strat

[mystixboi]

So this strat started out as a Fender Deluxe Player's Strat. I tried to give it a relic job that turned out so bad, I won't even share a pic. Over the years, I did the following mods:

- had the body refinished to purple metallic
- changed out the electronics entirely
- just recently I got an unfinished maple Warmoth neck with stainless steel frets... I gave it a tru-oil and gunstock wax treatment

This guitar is a beast now!!!

Before:

Today:

Can't stop playing it! These Warmoth necks are excellent!

That's an awesome color! I like the look of the first neck but I tend to like Rosewood. Playability is most important. Killer job!

I live it! Hello Kitty is the perfect touch.
