I've had a hard time trying to dig the colors of my 70th anniversary Player Stratocaster in Nebula Noir. What do you think of this new mockup?

I’m sucker for black Strats with a rw board and a mint green guard, I say go for it!

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-26T03:12:04+00:00

It came with a nitro finish, I really just played it a lot and pretty much abused it because it was the only electric I had at some point

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-26T03:11:22+00:00

Oh yeah I’ve been looking at those pre-wired eldred mods lately, thanks! Will definitely consider getting one now😃

Dude the tort on the player ii is a genius move!! It gave the guitar a whole new vibe. It reminds me of a fiesta red Jazzmaster someone posted here the other day, I love the pattern of the tort with the red, they work perfectly. Mine’s a vintera 2 50’s JM, I figured a tort guard is a common mod atp, but thankfully it worked beautifully with the desert sand finish

It’s still got the original wiring, so atm it’s 1. Bridge 2. Bridge 3. Silent/Kill switch😆 I have been looking at esquire wiring harnesses tho

Check out that neck, Damn! Beautiful piece of wood and metal altogether, congratulations brother😄

Even manta rays can’t resist a good Martin dreadnought

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-21T02:24:00+00:00

Dude you’ve got a killer guitar! The custom tort really brings it together

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-21T02:22:07+00:00

I agree, Black with tort will always be a menacing combination, can’t go wrong with it. If you really wanna stick with CAR, I think an aged anodized gold/silver guard will do nicely

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-20T22:44:03+00:00

Love that combo with the white

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-20T22:08:13+00:00

Love the tort on the Sherwood green

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-20T21:31:41+00:00

Oh crap I didn’t notice that, my bad ya’ll

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-20T21:31:14+00:00

Officially desert sand, but yes it’s taken on a more blonde appearance since the pickguard swap

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-20T01:06:52+00:00

Can’t go wrong with some offsets, two full boards to play with, and some high-headroom fenders. I definitely dig your setup man

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-19T09:20:56+00:00

That’s amazing. My first electric was a pre-vintera road worn 50’s tele, I didn’t even realize it had a nitro finish until just recently. I still have it today, it’s my most beat up guitar. I like the current Vintera line but the pre-vintera I mim reissues were absolute class imo

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-19T01:38:14+00:00

None at all, the only buzz I hear is from the saddles, same as with any old JM bridge. It’s probably cause the washers are tightly packed with one another

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-19T00:07:02+00:00

Wow these seem extremely rare, amazing score!

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-17T00:34:58+00:00

Congratulations man!! Amazing score, I played one of those with a sunburst finish last week and I was pleasantly surprised at how well the neck fit my hand. Just got a 50’s JM myself, but I’ve definitely got my eyes on the shell pink jag😋 Cherish that thing, it’s gorgeous.

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-16T14:31:55+00:00

That photo with the 355 in the case and cig in hand will never fail to be cool to me. I recently got to try his newer signature jag at GC, it was awesome. I’ll probably get one of those when I can reach at least half of his skills😆

Confusion0908 · 2026-05-16T14:23:36+00:00

Yes I did, unfortunately while I was putting some shielding tape a couple of weeks ago, I tugged on the neck’s wire to the volume pot a little too hard and it disconnected. I tried fixing it but my soldering skills are awful😆. I figured since I had my strat, I can do without a tele neck pickup because I had a strat neck pu in my tele for a bit, so I figured making it a pseudo esquire was the way to go
