    thats pretty cool, its probably a PIA to produce this kind of a vid, but i would love to see it for other instruments as well, not only basses and guitars, but also something cool like cellos violins and even brass instruments!

    thanks for the share!

    I agree that would be cool, but while the strat was probably made within a week but cellos/violins/(most other instruments) take significantly longer to produce.

    For me the question that comes to mind is - is this how Squiers are built overseas? Do they use the same manufacturing techniques as Fender does in this video? :confused:
