This started as a 1980s mustang strat

Finished in real 24ct gold leaf black burst Lauquer clear coated

Relic look, but new bridge (fixed) Jack input, pickups, wiring, knobs, covers, string tree…. All new parts From northwest guitars.

Locking tuners

Black (no holes) pickup covers

Black and gold knobs

Roller string tree on headstock

Body cavity has copper foil tape to reduce electric noise

Pickguard also copper coated

Reliced

The neck. I striped the varnish off and buffed the fretboard with a wool polishing pad which heated it up….giving it a baked look popping the grain

It’s been finished in good quality bees wax (briwax)

I’m not sure what the body is made of, but it’s solid with a bit of weight to it. Definitely not basswood

I screwed a wooden block in the bridge cavity, to accommodate the new fixed bridge.

Plays and sounds good

Absolute unique one of a kind that I spent a lot of time on…… at a sensible price.

I would keep it but strats and single could guitars are not my thing and I’ve got lots of guitars
