Refinish - Squier Stratocaster electric guitar 1999
Just completed refinishing this Squier Strat. Originally it was blue with a white pickguard, fairly stock. I upgraded the pick guard to tortoise shell, replaced the white controls with black versions and stripped the paint, distressed and stained. Also swapped the stock Squier pickups for a made in Mexico set I picked up online
