How much do your strat copies go for?

My new custom gat is taking shape, though I'm not sure about the headstock, that may change design ;)

That headstock looks ideal for resting a drink on. I'm sure this has occurred to you, BG?

no its not going to be black :eek: it may be red though, transparent red with an oiled finish probably.

Haven't decided on the headstock shape yet, probably be pretty reverse pointy though :D

Its lost its fat arse now as well, if you look at the right hand side where there is an extra piece joined on - its gone.

Has to have that funky belt connection though, so you can spin it around in true ZZ Top style...

That was pretty much the idea behind this prototype one. All going well, this will probably be the direction the Realtone Guitars will take :)

I'd be keen on a realtone model of that - with a hard tail that is - never learned how to use a whammy, so it's extra hardware I don't need. when am I likely to see that 'direction'?
