I should have expected lots of smart - I mean cleaver - answers. It is a 57 Strat with a 56 neck, and yes it's left handed. It was Surf Green

Surf Green is a great colour.
Looks great. Maybe a 3 ply guars in mint green or parchment to balance out the relicing?

Seems to be missing screw holes for the back plate

So is this is a faux relic? What's it put together from?

Re: My new OLD guitar
I'm liking the axe!, looks like old style truss rod - can see a shadow where the scratch plate meets, bridge saddles have the 'look'. Paint kind of looks a bit poly but some great patina going on, I'm too ignorant to know if it's nitro - what say ye-all?.
Would be interesting to see under the scratch plate & see if it has 'nail holes'.

Nice gat! Does it have the nail holes under the pick guard? I believe it does! It even has an old piece of masking tape with the name 'gloria' on it in the cavity! Pretty authentic!
