Isaac’s Strat is ready to rock

Isaac and I put in some time today, and now his strat is rocking! The Humbucker-single-single pickup configuration is amazing. This afternoon we put on a new pickguard, neck, tuners and strings. We've still got a couple grounding issues to iron out, but we're really happy with the progress.

Isaac’s Strat

A few weeks ago Isaac came to me with a really sketchy looking guitar and asked if we could make it play. After removing everything we couldn't use, we were left with a strat body that had some Aweful paint all over it.

We removed all the paint with carb/choke cleaner, and found a pretty cool looking stock paint job underneath!

After all that, we've sheilded the main body cavity with copper tape, then mounted a hard tail bridge and HSS pickup set.

More updates and photos to come!!!!
