Re: Show us your Partscaster...
My Partscaster - All the work was done for me by a very talented local Luthier.
Started off as a sunburst Fender Mexican Strat (with bridge humbucker and tele neck PU) I bought maybe 2013 ish, this pics was a War Pig in the Bridge and a Tele Neck PU a friend made.

Resprayed white, new scratchplate, routed for Neck Humbucker only (a ZombieDust Silurian). Holes filled and bridge also replaced and moved back so it intonation is right for our stupid tuning.

Robot Graves Aluminium Neck Fitted, knobs changed - think I'm done tinkering with this one for now.

Re: Show us your Partscaster...
I assembled and finished a partscaster over the last few weeks. I used a can of reranch ‘59 Desert Tan for the body - no clear because I wanted a more matte finish and tru-oil for the neck. I splurged and bought Fralin Vintage Hots, but was more conservative with the rest. All Parts Soft V neck and a Best Guitar Parts 2 pc Alder body. I’m happy to have a ‘strat’ around again and it’s a pretty nice player.

Cool colour. Looks like soft leather.
It's like an orange on a toothpick
