1963 1961 Orig Eddie Vegas Fender Stratocaster Built
Hi.. Well I'm watching TV this AM. The biker Build Off. The 1 guy uses old with new. So I had this in my mind with 1961 Neck and LIGHT Weight 1963 Body..So I did it. L@@KS and Sounds Great. 3 Video's show it, hear it pretty good. It's Called a Player..and Blow Any 5k master built away!
Basically REAL Pre CBS Body, Neck, Knobs, Pickguard Screws,Strap Buttons. Rest High End Super Relic Fender Custom Shop
1961 Fender Jazzmaster Neck...(jazzmaster and Stratocaster Necks are the Exact Same, but Jazzmaster had different logo, and hair bit larger in headstock area) Slaboard Neck Date 4-61. Dan Shinn @ Lays Guitar in Arkron Ohio. Re cut the headstock into Strat. Repo Kluson Tuners, finish was blended in. You can see not much on the back, and still glows under black lite. The Evarna Nut is in there without cutting the nut slot any. Orig Nut can go back on... but why? These are Unreal!
Body is 8/63.( yes Fender used the Red spray paint for body dates on some bodies then. I got a 100% Orig finish 63 or 64 body on my site with same red in date) Body was dunked in tank to get orig finish off, so no over sanding etc. THAT GLOWS As Orig finish. It was done 30+ years ago. Nitro sprayed over Wood!
