    FS/FT Amazing Suburst Fender Strat

    FS/FT Let me know what you got. US or MIJ LP's only. May be interested in some SG's as well... Hwy 1 Sunburst body with a 1982 Fender Neck, Alnico 3 PU's and a black Pickgaurd put on for an SRV vibe. It had a Floyd Rose at one time, but was removed years ago. He had the fretboard replaced at...

    NGD...1981 Greco EG-480!!!

    Hey Guys, Just got around to finally doing some cosmetic mods to my Greco! I just deglossed the body with a 3M scotch brite pad to give it a nice satin finish, which also helped smooth out some of the nicks in the poly... Also tried to take some shine off the new Gotoh Bridge, since everything...

    Hey Jacco, Yeah, could use a tad more shoulder at the lower frets for this particular neck profile to be optimal. But, really just wish I could find one that doesn't taper down from the 12th fret where it's a full 1" and feels nice and beefy.

    NGD...1981 Greco EG-480!!!

    Thanks Jacco! Yeah, I think I've changed pots on just about every LP I've ever had. I usually wire it up with a 50's wiring scheme or a Greg Martin "Hillbilly wiring" design. I believe the shop who I bought this from changed the Bridge to a new Gotoh and also put the Gotoh HB Classics in, so...

    NGD...1981 Greco EG-480!!!

    Just hooked up what I believe is a modified 1981 Greco EG-480R! scored it for $300 + the outrageous shipping from Japan. My main needs were a LIGHT chambered or semi-hollow LP with a FAT Neck and preferably Cherry Sunburst. Looks like I covered all three from the specs, neck appears to be almost...
