lettsguitars Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 hey, i like it. seems to have done a good job. the tuners look great. and of course it has the genuine fender bridge alignment problems so who'd guess it's only a squier, squire. he's right in saying it's original. of course it aint the only relic'd guitar in the world but there has to be less of those, than the billions of other fenders that all look identical.

daz Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Has he not got it the wrong way around? Are you not supposed to simulate wear by sanding off a little bit of paint. He has sanded off the entire bass except for a tiny area? I suggest we find out the name of this guys teacher or the name of the infant school he's at and try and put a stop to him before he hurts himself with those tools.

Mykesbass Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 There have been plenty of relics pointed out on here in the past but this one has got to be by far the worst. No wonder the Google ad on the bottom of the page was for Wickes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
