Very smart!! Pure fake. Where's the skunk stripe on the back of the neck???


Rosewood Necks aren't supposed to have skunk stripes if they are modeled after a 60s strat. The skunk stripe was originally used on 1 pc maple necks because they had to put the truss rod in from the rear. With a two piece neck ( Maple and Rosewood) Fender just put the truss rod in from the top. For Some reason modern strats just throw the skunk stripe on Rose wood boards too for some reason

I can't read the language but it looks like it admits to being a parts guitar

Продается мой личный страт. Гриф - от custom shop 1993 страта с профилем Robert Cray кленовый flame maple
Дека заказная Musikraft из отборного ясеня http://www.musikraft.com
Начинка полностью от custom shop страта 97 года, который я недавно продал без пикгарда и датчиков. Локовые колки Gotoh.
Цена очень смешная для инструмента такого уровня 1000 USD (если учесть что кастом шоп гриф в США стоит не менее 800 долларов, а такую деку заказать 300-350 долларов. Инструмент убирает ЛЮБОЙ делюкс, и звучит не хуже моего кастомшопа 96 года. Гитара в отличном состоянии и комплектуется пластиковым кейсом. ICQ 96560777 или в личку

Both Musikraft and Gotoh make Aftermarket strat parts. Someone probably just added decals to the headstock and assembled this themselves

Hmmmm . . . I think I saw something on this website, once upon a time, which indicated that modern truss rods are put in from the rear, just like they used to be, no matter what the fingerboard material. Don't remember now where I saw that. Oh, well, not disputing what you say. Could be that all the necks have the slot for the truss rod cut in the back and have to be filled in,no matter how the rod is installed.
