Just saw this...I rarely check the "lunch" board. Looks great. Did you do the neck inlays? How does it sound? Did you build from scratch or a kit?

Both my builds so far have been kits.

I am trying to get the nerve up to do a Warmoth body and neck....kinda thinking about my ultimate strat build.

My brother from a different mother. My first electric was an Ibanez Roadstar II, very similar to the one on your rack.

5150, I was jamming today with a friend(I was playing drums which is my real instrument), and we were bemoaning how expensive 70s Fenders have become.

For example, I have given up on buying a 70s Super Telecaster. I mean, $3k is nuts but that is what they are all listed for. When did these 70s fenders get so hot in terms of price?
