Pawn shopping find

[straycat]

As you all know its my hobby finding this shit.
Got this today because I'm out of strats.
89 MIK Squier II I love the necks on these they feel right to me.I bought it just for the neck alone but its a great player after some cleaning and a different pick guard its a pretty cool guitar.Pearl white with some age fade.
One of the not so dead sounding plywood bodies I have run across light as a feather and rings decently.Pick ups sound nice and clear with lots of strat chime.
Before and after pics with the pick guard change.
A great deal for $90.00 with gag bag out the door.

Buy It to smash?

[straycat]

No of course not I will find a proper body soon trust me.It plays and sounds great as is Oh I did swap the ceramic cap for an orange drop so maybe that helped the tone a bit.
Really a nice player.

Oh yeah - that's where the tone is at!

Harsh, but funny!

[straycat]

I said that about the cap in jest so not harsh at all.LOL

[Sharkfin]

Nice, I like the look of that black pearloid pickguard. I have a MIM Squire II that feels great and plays really well. I love the feel of it's maple neck. It feels very comfortable.

But what about the super duper RSGuitarworks kit?!

Old squiers are great. I love my 1985 MIJ strat!

But what about the super duper RSGuitarworks kit?!

I heard they were so good you have to buy two 'cause one won't do it...

There is still a legacy around here regarding Squier guitars.
There were a few good ones slipped in the mix.

Uh, no...I don't think an RS kit would help.
This coming from me, a clown that put "1200 dollars worth of electronics" in
a Jap Jackson.
They are still in, look them up:

Well I may put an RS kit in it if I find a nice body.May have a pine body built for it still up in the air on that.
My pine tele is the tits.
