That guitar looks absolutely CRISP!


It may look crisp, I guess my phone camera flatters it though. It's covered in potholes when you see it close up. And I had to replace the pickguard recently, years of smoking had stained the original plastic parts a very unpleasant shade of brown.

Here's a "before" pic with the old frets and the old and new pickguards to compare ...

The guitar is a 1987 (or maybe 88, memory's failing me in my old age) US Standard that I've had from new. The finish is metallic gun metal blue, not a very common colour but it looks brilliant under bright lights.
