Recently bought a Hondo H-76 stratocaster for the price of a "happymeal", so why not give it a try.
I stripped it and found out that it doesn't have a gold finish. It used to be white. Last owner smoked a lot, i think. It turned the finish into gold. BTW it's plywood as you can see
Pickups have a lot of output and sound very warm. There is almost no hum, even at high volume. I don't like the sound of the bridge pickup so i'll replace that one with a P90.
Can anyone tell me more about these singlecoils?
Removed the bridge, plugged the holes with pieces of a wooden rod, and i'll replace the bridge with a Diego Deluxe (lefthanded).
I'll build a lefty stratneck from scratch with a maple fretboard and will fit golden lockingtuners.
A hardware will be gold, that with the aged paint that looks like gold will make it a strat Mr. T would like.
