Sorry about the title... I had to.

This's been going since a bit before Christmas. It's one of those things I just can't stop adding to. This was once a basic strat. I added a SD '59 Special, a Fender noiseless to the neck. I axed the middle tone and middle pickup and added things along the way. The Camaro badge was off of an '88 my girlfriend was going to race.

My logic? The middle pickups was in my way and I never quack a strat anyways. Also, it gives me a nice kill switch. The other stuff... uhhh... I'm crazy? I can't tell you why. I just did it. The masking tape was leftover from cleaning up the inside and I figured I'd cover up those ugly holes with a happy face!

I SWEAR THIS WAS NOT AN EDDIE RIP OFF. But seriously, it's just how I like it. You get some chunked strat and blues tones into crankin' leads and riffs. I love it. It even says hello to jazz and is as comfy in my hands as my Ric 360. (Also, it sounds 100% eddie...)

Edit: I forgot to ask... anyone do something similar? Just can't stop modding or toying with a certain one?
