Hi friends, here she is!! my very custom "vintage blondie"

http://www.gorilarex.com/joyitas.htm

Well, in resume: Ash body 1962 replica made by master builder Daniel Chavez, Tex Mex pickups, 1995 MIA strat plus ultra bridge/trem/neck/tuners, and a nice ebony nut.
Hotroded so that when in the bridge pickup, the bottom tone has control. What else can I say?, she is the guitar I always deamed of, totally customized to my preferences. The price?.....expensive!! but worth every penny.
Comments very welcome!!

Happy Holidays and best wishes for 2010.

It says "joyitas" (read vertically). Whatever that means (the word is in the URL the OP gave).

My other guitar is a Strat.

Thank u all 4 the comments. "Joyitas" is how i named the guitar, and well as u noticed it´s written discreetly. Translates to "Jewels" in english.
Just went to my friends house to compare it vs other strats, and other guitars, and found out that it´s got a unique tone.
We try them on a good amp (fender, marshall), with no effects but the dist of the amp and the clean reverb.

This was the outcome:
-Super deep tone
-Incredible lows
-Superb punch and definition, specially in low/mid freq.
-In betweens sound very acoustic and mellow
-Crank it up with dist and it´s a monster, sustains like a Gibson but with a "fender" tone.
-Hard to explain in words........I wanted a uniquie strat ideal for hard rock, and "punchy cleans", and 4 that, it xcels.

thanx u all 4 that feedback and interest.

Happy Holidays

fantastic!!! awesome job refurbishing that neck, especially the headstock.

Wow I totally love it. In fact I am wondering what the body of my Beck Strat would look like if I stripped it thats how much I dig the look.

Nice! Well done!

Hey Stray, I´d definetely do that on the Jeff Beck, but, if your guit didn´t have a nice wood pattern (how can u know if it´s painted, right?), It would be a hit or miss situation, what color is your Jeff Beck by the way?
