My Number One

I love the versatility of this...I bought the loaded body from Stratosphere and paired it with an elite ebony neck, with Planet Waves locking tuners. The Shawbucker pairs well with the 2 '64 tele pickups, and with it direct mounted into the ash body, makes it resonate extremely well. It also has both contours that you would normally find on a strat.
