“Rocky” Stratocaster

Wow, just love this paint job!  What George Harrison fan wouldn’t want one!  The owner has done a fantastic job, with a couple of subtle twists of his own along the way.  All it needs now is to be put back together, along with a pickup swap, and a full setup to make sure it plays as well as it looks…..

Unfortunately the donor guitar wasn’t the best of quality and some of the frets are a little uneven.

So before I do put it all together I’m going to dress and re-crown the frets.

I love this, I think I want one!
