How cool are these ??

The Jazzbastard

As the search goes on for the ultimate Strat I stumbled across these.. Rock N' Roll Relics. Being a bit of a rock and roll relic myself, I just had to take a look. Could this be the future of electric guitars? Guitars 'assembled' using the best of reddily available parts of which there are plenty these days. The Partscaster is becoming a big hobby with the garage builders and these guys are taking the concept and puting together quality parts and finishing them in reliced nitro custom finishes and making a business of it. Personally I prefer a nice new shiny instrument and any relicing done would come over years of natural wear and tear but there are guys that can't wait. Some of these relic finishes can look so fake yet the fakers from Rock N' Roll Relics manage to create an instrument to make Mike and Frank, the 'American Pickers' salivate. They really do look like they have lived in a dusty old barn in Iowa for 40 years (yes of course, without a case). I love this Fiesta Red one pickup Jazzbastard with the GT stripe.
