2013 Squier Affinity Heavily-Modded HH Stratocaster Electric Guitar


This one is funny because I've sold and traded it at least two or three times since it's been in my orbit. It came back the last time after, apparently, having been played heavily-enough to coat the whole pickguard with finger-gunk and destroy the remains of the wiring harness, hehe.


This time around I cleaned it up a bunch, fit a brand-new wiring harness with Bourns 500k audio-taper pots, orange drop caps, and a Switchcraft jack, and set it up once again. The sound "breathes" a bit more, now, like it always does when you get the components more in-line with what they should be doing. I gave it a set of Gibson-style knobs to accentuate that "pimp'd hillybilly guitar" vibe and its 3 or 4 differently-plated gold hardware bits.


Suffice to say, it's now traded-off again and with another happy new home.
