THE The Way of Relic

Squier Vintage Modified SSS Strat

Part-4: This looks like an SRV strat

Okay, I've put on the 3-tone burst color coats. 
I made the colors a little bit darker since the grain pattern of 
this body is not the best. The next step is to put the clear coat on, 
and then I can finally start the relic process. 

Ahh.. the ugly grain patterns are not noticeable with the color coat.


Yeah , and if when the pick guard goes on, it's totally not noticeable

But I'm....
.........
What's wrong?
I think I saw something like this...
.....
Oh yeah, this looks a lot like the SRV model.
What's that?


Stevie Ray Vaughn's guitar has the same colors



Yeah, if you put on the gold hardware parts, it definitely looks like that guitar.







Wait a minute! Isn't that bridge on the wrong way? 

Yeah, it definitely takes away on playability but he purposely 
put a lefty tremolo on a righty guitar. 
Oh gee wiz
Well the whammy bar nuance might be altered but he probably did so 
to make it more like a "man's guitar."




For example, to give an illustration, it's like putting a front cowl 
this way while knowing that the performance of a motorcycle will 
surely decrease. 
What? Wouldn't that just make it hard to see ahead?


Who care?
You don't need to see the front in this case.
I don't get it....

Ok, let me give you a better example that you can understand. 
Wearing high heels like this make a woman look cool but it also 
makes it harder to walk. 
See the point? It's the same thing. 
Hmm.. I'm not so sure if your example means the same. 
Lets just call it "The Spirit of Rock n Roll" !
well...ahhh...okay...
I have to go now...
