  • The green SoCal is growing on me....after some mods

    I was planning on replacing the body with a lighter one in daphne blue from Warmoth or Musikraft. But after redoing the hardware with the OFR and pickups/pickguard, and plugging it in, the green body may be a keeper. To my ears, this guitar now is every bit as good (workmanship, quality, tone) as the two MZ Naturals I have. I actually like the thicker neck profile on this one better.

    Oooh - that turned out very cool. The candy green is smokin'. Nice.

    Looks somewhat familiar, too.

      Thanks --- I was going for a more "classic" vibe on this with the yellowed plastic. I'm really liking this guitar.

              Looks very attractive-smooth, tight and flawless. Great job, it has the vibe of a nice workingman's stage guitar. Hey zari - any chance of posting a picture somewhere of your Music Zoo Naturals, maybe even starting a thread and getting other MZ owners to post pictures of theirs also? Thanks, Bo- aka triplehold

                  Aged/tinted plastic stuff looks good with colours that contrast it a lot. I have aged stuff on my Lake Placid Blue Strat and it looks great.

                      I think it looks too much like a regular Strat, or a Floyd Strat, obviously... to me its lost some of the Charvel vibe...

                        I like it . I would have gone with a pearloid pickguard, but I still like it your way.

                              That looks great! The green really stands out nice. Now I really want one.
