Partso kinda?

Squire series neck on a powerhouse body with clapton innards and wilkinson bridge and tuners.
More of a wreck than a custom. Still, i like it.

[EDIT] oh yeah its got a dimarzio fs2 in the bridge for some dark iommi tones that sound sweet in the bridge/mid possition. Very much a happy accident.

All great guitars, guys. You should proud of them.

Ryan - love yours. I'm a sucker for design (creative person by trade). I love wood grain on guitars. I really like the stain, the maple neck, the gold, the pickguard, the cream pickups, very stylish, very simple, and very sexy looking. I see way too many guitars that make me want to vomit or go into convulsions with bumper-car metallic neon green/black burst paint, AND dragon airbrushed pickguard, AND red hardware, AND naked lady neck inlays. Most customized guitars are just hideous.

Nice job, sir.

wow thanks for all the compliments guys, im glad you all like it.
believe it or not, but i think it sounds as good as it looks! but my opinion is very highly "tainted" i guess haha

as for the specs:
collector series fender ash body
mighty mite birdsye maple neck/fretboard/headstock with abalone dot inlay
tuners are custom gold with amber pegs
vintage gold fender tremolo
custom neckplate (partially designed by myself)
real birdseye maple pickguard/trem guard
lace sensor hot gold series pups (very impressed with these)
gold plated knobs/switch tip/pickguard screws

I was pretty much just collecting all the pieces i thought would look great and were top quality as i went for about 5 years before finishing it a couple months ago.

This was my "project" im currently working on doing the keeley mod on my blues driver, and then for my last big project im making a 5e3 tweed deluxe amp to all the original specs, tubes, etc

Not taking away from the other nice customs, blue flames are pretty cool. Ryan your guitar is heads above the other ones I've seen. Fender should put it in it's line up.
