LukeFRC Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I don't mind the relicing. The pick guard is retarded.... I just really really don't like the period correct decal thing going on, it's stupid.... actually no, that's not awful, its the custom shop logo that is! why? why? WHY?

discreet Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Shippers again. I presume he must be selling these or he wouldn't keep listing 'em..? I'm not against relicing [i]per se[/i], but it always seems to be done very badly for some reason. May just have a go at it myself. As you know, I'm the epitome of restraint and good taste.

karlfer Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I wish I'b put gloves on before looking at those photos. Even the pictures make me feel unclean.

[/quote] There's only one saving grace about this & that is that he's not destroying genuine Fenders to do it. Maybe in years to come Squiers will be worth more than Fenders because he will have single handedly wiped most of them out.
