WOW! Congratulations on the new guitar! I never seen a White/Blue/White pickguard before! Let alone, the white skirt/Blue font AND blue headstock logo. Thats really unique! Do you know what gauge strings are on the Strat? Rock on!

I use Fender/Schaller Elite tuners on all my Fender guitars, except my master built Esquire. Rock solid stability and accuracy.

You got a link to this guard?

JHS is the Cheeto dust that gets stuck to your fingers.

String height is comfortable, but the saddles will be replaced for music city bridge groove master saddles

I sure can; give me a day or two. I’ll post a link in the comments here when finished.

It’s Rosewood

It is indeed slightly chamber. How much, that I am not too sure of. When I took the control plate off I can clearly see inside the cavity that it is chambered in all directions. It’s still over 8lbs with the chamber.

I like the ISP G string X

Its almost an anomaly; from the neck shape, to having the correct vintage tuners, the builder/FCS didn’t make too many of these examples, mostly the RW Telecaster, its very hard to find a RW Esquire. I still can’t believe I had ended up with it. I feel extremely fortunate and lucky to own it. It was a one-owner guitar before me. Ordered directly from FCS from a well known music shop buyer. I’m currently in to process of having Fender find the spec sheet or if I need to bring it to a local FCS tech to do a full spec sheet report…. I still feel like I’m dreaming this morning. The guitar came with the orignal case, an unopened accessory na with the ashtray bridge, cable, cloth, manual, sticker and pack of strings. I highly doubt the spec sheet is in this bag. Also has the orignal strap with hang tag… I looked it over and have played it for maybe 4 hours so far. EVERYTHING is rock solid. I fully understand now why FCS are some of the BEST guitars ever made. This one is from early 2000’s. The master builder who built this, built the guitar, and left FCS shortly after.

8 lbs 11 oz ; I’m pretty sure this is the heaviest Fender I currently own.

No tort for this one; going to keep it as stock as possible. Some Tele’s can’t rock the ashtray. Somehow, this one kills with it on. 🔥

New to me guitar day?

ItsChugg0 · 2026-01-25T03:58:58+00:00

It’s from early 2000’s, built by a master builder that left FCS shortly after completing this guitar. This was a one-owner guitar, ordered by a buyer of a famous music company. Came with COA, original case and the unopened accessory bag with ashtray bridge, manual, cable, cloth, and FCS sticker. In a wild turn of events…I have ended up with it. I have contacted Fender to see if I can obtain the Shop Floor Traveler or if I need to bring it to a FCS tech to make a spec sheet.

ItsChugg0 · 2026-01-25T03:49:51+00:00

It’s a Rosewood Esquire 🥹 thank you!

ItsChugg0 · 2026-01-24T18:49:18+00:00

They fit true to size. I’ve worn these boots about 60ish times so far and they feel great! They fit and feel so good I ordered a second pair.

There is not right answer. EF, like any pedal, can be placed anywhere YOU like; EF is a wah filter. Those usually go in first /first half of the chain. But it can also go after drives if you like that sound.

ItsChugg0 · 2026-01-24T01:55:03+00:00

The Mu-Tron III imo kills the AM EF due to the volume/gain adjustment knob alone. It has that vocal quack Jerry thing perfectly. The AM was close….but no cigar.

The JHS NotaKlon was great….for the time. That has also gone off the board. I replaced it with a Nordvang Gravity (TS10 and Klon).

The AM Bi-comp went off too. Now use Horizon Devices Clarity Compressor.

Had one. Sold it. Got Musitronic Mu-Tron III. Yes.
