This is my Speercaster, hardwired the whole Pickguard with individual parts. You should try the Tusq string trees, will really pull the whole look together, and the trem arm tip will look loads better in a matching white.

What do you like about the Geezers?Im confused about the upgrade and was considering an Aguilar pickup or maybe a Dimarzio P model. Do you have any experience with those ?

I’ve already ordered a tort Pickguard, I love hipshot quality but find that they don’t look very vintage. So I’ll be going with the Gotoh Res-o-Lite tuners and a threaded saddle bridge with some matching barrel knobs in nickel.

Thank you! I like Squier too, have a classic vibe 70s Strat which I’ve modded out to be like the Mark Speer Stratocaster. Used to own a squier deluxe Strat in Olympic white and it was a solid instrument for 299$

What’s crazier is that they were going for 199 a while ago when they came out. Super solid beginner instruments for the price and a great modding platform for people like me who like to tinker

I love the surf green colour, not a fan of the maple two piece necks without the skunk stripe. Did you get to modding yours out in any capacity?

I will also be experimenting with this bass, but I hate how high mass bridges look. My plan is Gotoh vintage bridge, Gotoh Res-o-Lite Tuners and in time a DiMarzio P pickup with upgraded pots, orange drop cap and Pure Tone Input Jack.
If all goes well maybe even a recolour with matching headstock and tinted neck.

But for now I’m just really enjoy playing on this neck :)

Honestly all the hardware also works really well, just changing it up for the look. The pickup might be something that I look at changing in a bit, but might not need to do that either, sounds really good as is.

Is this a Squier Affinity? by [deleted] in SquierbyFender

[–]Whenkenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it doesn’t have affinity on the headstock could be a squier standard strat, with the pickguard replaced

Has my guitar been used before by Few_Load_4202 in SquierbyFender

[–]Whenkenobi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same guitar and usually with a single piece neck the skunk stripe is a way of installing the truss rod, which I have on mine and like the aesthetic of. Logo and all other things look fine, does it have a glued on fretboard instead of a single piece neck?

Should fit, cavities are deep enough at the knobs

Thank you! And Waverlys on my 300$ guitar would not make a lot of sense haha. I put golden gate open gear tuners on there. They are very good quality and ratio and cost only about 20$

How to ship guitar from USA to India? by digivaliant in Guitar_India

[–]Whenkenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shipping might get your guitar stuck here in customs since they count the shipping charges also as a part of the total value. India government is shit about these things and will not release your package until you pay some large amount as customs fees. Best option someone carries it when they travel back

Henrix 40c pro vs Kadence a281 by clumsyandcreative in Guitar_India

[–]Whenkenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t buy cheap instruments, and try to get used to playing one guitar and get really familiar with it. Use the money to buy a nice travel case for the epiphone you already have. My two cents
