As for the guitar (called Sandra) TurquoiseArmies writes:

"It's a Squier Classic Vibe 60s model that cost me around 250 dollars. Updated parts (electronics,hardware) and bought paint, all together about another 250, and then just reliced the thing myself"

"Van Zandt Vintage+ in the neck and middle, Lollar Strat Special in the bridge. CTS pots, steel tremolo block, etc"

Recorded with Line 6 Pod XT Live

Pretty bloody good

Nice tone (dont know about doing a relic job like that on my guitar...)

Man that was some great stuff. i dont know if yall will agree with me, but that is one of the best homemade relic jobs i have seen.

Its been said many, many times. The tone is all in the hands. I'd be willing to be SRV, Clapton, Hendrix, or any other fellow out there could make a Squire Bullet strat sound awesome... Case in point, a few years ago, Volkswagon was selling a car that came with a First Act guitar that Slash played through the car stereo. He totally rocked it and First Act is about as cheap quality as you can get!
