     A relicced Bone white, with a bakelite pickguard would do that some justice.





    He's not wrong!

    Snakehead in White Satin….

    Scratchplate is not quite there, I need to make a new control plate and ditch the mini toggle, just a volume and tone….

    The more I look at it the more I dislike the paint colour, its a bit dull and boring, so I can see it all coming apart again for some colour….
    How about white?  

    White could look good ....

    :D
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    I took the factory tour in Corona in 2018 while visiting relatives in Longbeach.

    Here is a link to a thread from then...

    There was a corridor with guitars on display and here is one of them...

    I didnt really get along with the white and ummed and ahhed before refinishing, deciding to match the colour to our new caravan…
    With the exception ot the bridge ashtray cover, all the aged hardware has been replaced and I made a new scratchlate and control plate…

    Really nice colour change. You need to do a Land Rover coloured one now! :-)

    Same colour as the Land Rover has been on the cards for a while, it would have to be a Strat or Tele, cos its a (De)Fender!
