Cost me about a score. First eight frets, completely shot and the weirdest size bridge cavity ever. Decided to fill the trem hole (yes that is the correct name for it, the monkey told me), and went for a hardtail. Used turmeric and paprika in oil to stain the wood, great stuff for aging pale wood.
It needed a full scratchplate assembly so I looked around the house, and realised that I didn't have a sunburst/tort strat, so the choice was made.
Absolutely no excuse for untidy wiring here, stuck in a set of old MIM fender pups I had acquired i9n a box of odds and sods, and hey presto, A rather nice vintage hardtail strat with a weird twist of MIJ wrong logo.
For upcoming projects I'll try and get some better "during" photo's.
Hi. I realise this is a long shot. I have the same grantson strat. I want to put a brown tortoise shell scratch guard on it but noticed the screw holes are slightly out. I was hoping that whoever it ws that posted this was able to tell me where they got theirs or did you buy a sheet and make a template?
