2 Fender Squier Strats converted to a Sparkle Blue double-neck guitar

We converted two Fender Squier strats into a double neck guitar, as a prop for a commercial – same one that used the BC Rich “V” that we finished Sparkle blue a few weeks back. This double neck is soo much fun and doesn’t weigh a lot due to the basswood bodies! We have nailed the “coarse sparkle” paintjobs, so come on in!

Guitar Set-up & Maintenance Workshop

Our Guitar Set-up & Maintenance Workshop went great! All participants were really happy with how their guitars turned out, and had an awesome time fixing and learning more about their instrument. Trying to do it yourself at home or looking at stuff online will never be this fun. Definitely worth it! I had a blast too, BAS!

High polish fretjob

High polish fretjob

Do you notice the reflection of light continuing from the glossy body thru the frets? This is our high polish fretjob.
Even though this is a high end G&L GUITAR, its fret ends have become sharp due to weather and age. Not only did we do the corner filing to fix this but we also gave it a fret polish from hell with a fine paper & even finer liquid cutting compound.
When you bend after our fretwork, trust us, u bend smoothly & EFFORTLESSLY, MORE SUSTAIN FROM LESS IMPERFECTION- Bas
