I have a thing about buying a special guitar from the month and year of my children’s birth. Something to pass down to them on their 21st birthday. They may hate music, who knows, but I think it’s still a cool thing to have. Hopefully it reminds them of me. This is perfect for my daughter. A Fender Custom Shop custom built '56 Stratocaster Relic, Black under Red from August 2020 Specs: - Alder body - Fat 50's neck and middle pickup - Fat 50's HW bridge pickup - Fat 50's strat controlls - Maple fretboard - Fretwire: Vintage Upgrade - 7.25" radius - 1.650" nut width - '57 style soft-v neck profile - Top colour: Candy Apple red - Bottom colour: Black - Heavy Relic                   
Here’s some photos of my FENDER USA Telecaster Deluxe Olympic Pearl + Rosewood. Apologies for the watermarks, they are form the advertisement from when I bought the guitar. I’m not a photographer any any photo I take myself look crap. **- Body:** Alder Body w/ Tortoise Shell Binding **- Fretboard:** Rosewood **- Neck Shape:** Modern "C" Neck Profile **-Pick-ups:** Noiseless N3 Single-Coil Tele Pickups **- Weight:** 7lbs 15oz Gorgeous tortoise shell binding gives this a real classic look.

I thought I’d start this community off with a post featuring one of the favorites in my collection, my 1989 Gibson Les Paul Standard. - Rare iteration produced for Gibson’s Japanese distributor Yamano - Similar to the Showcase model but with a Nashville bridge - Cream plastic, Goldtop lacquer finish, and a pair of clear bobbin P-100 pickups - P-100 pickups deliver the growl and midrange fullness of a P90, but with an extra hum-cancelling coil - Solid, non-weight relieved mahogany body and carved maple top - Weighs a light 9lbs 1oz - One-piece mahogany neck with a slender C shape at the nut and a gentle taper up the fretboard - Dark, tight-grained rosewood fretboard with original wide/flat Gibson fretwire - Stock Gibson Deluxe tuners and CTS pots from 1988 - Original Gibson/Yamano COA booklet and brown tole Gibson USA hardshell case Overall, she’s an incredibly well-preserved beauty and a tribute to the ’56 Les Paul, sure to spark some envy in the hearts of fellow guitar enthusiasts!
