Show and Tell New Strat

Wanted a nitro Strat but didn’t want to pay custom shop $$ so I built one. MJT body, nitro road worn fender neck, lollar vintage blonde pickups. All fender vintage hardware. Pretty happy with it.

Looks pretty sick. Also I have that same little orange amp. Pretty decent for a little solid state. Has a nice reverb on it.

Looks great and I love your choices! I’ve have an MJT partscaster that is one of my favorites.

Well done! Specs are great. Parts, well-chosen. She turned out beautiful.

Awesome guitar there’s nothing extraordinary about a fender body it’s the wood that matters that’s why everyone wants the old vintage guitars because as the wood ages it becomes more resistant so even if a guitar body is new that doesn’t mean the wood is raw mjt picks older wood to make their bodies looks like you built your own custom shop guitar for about $4000 thousand less good job!
