Hi ClassicRock92: nice looking geet. Is that a Seymour Duncan at the bridge? Can't quite read the writing. The black hardware goes well with the rest.

Far as the dings are concerned: we could touch those up so they don't showed much if you want. Black is the easiest (IMO) but even so the only way to an absolutely invisible mend is a full refinish.

Good to just live with that genuine wear if you can, but there's options if you want 'em...

Cheers - C

I'm fine with it :) its not fully genuine though the largest ding which is clearly visible i suspect is the result of a hammer...
Yes all 3 are Duncans :) its in the blurb i wrote at the top of the post :D

CR that is one fine looking ax, very nice indeed. I would not be concerned with the dings as they seem to be all in the back and I do not know if you got it like that but if they happened while you had the ax just be a bit more careful when you get your Fender.

A very fine looking guitar. It might not be a Fender, but very nice, I'd play it. Thanks for posting, looking forward to more posts from you.
