    Those look nice. Quite a bit more authentic wear marks than Fender's "Roadworn" series.
    POO DAT!!!

    You should take better care of your stuff. Those are getting all scratched up.

    They look good!

    Aww, man, I really like them! Nothing like a beat-to-heck Stratocaster...I need a two tone burst w/maple and a white one w/rosewood, pronto!!!

    I've always wondered--do the tuners have that tarnished/rusted feel to them?

    It always rips up my fingers when I play an old axe and don't wash between tuning and playing, or if I'm testing an old guitar with rusted strings. Ouchies.

    Dude, they look fantastic. Kudos to you for not bothering with a headstock decal. It doesn't need to say "Fender" on there for it to be a fine instrument.

    Those look AWESOME!! I build a replica myself and I couldn't get to damaging the perfect paint job so I left it and made a closet classic! I do like the relic job on Yours especally the white one.

    It's all banged up, but I really like this color.
