NGD!!! The ultimate black Strat!!!

Here she is. To me its the ultimate Strat! Its got an American Deluxe Strat neck, American Body, Boogie rail bridge with Graph-tec saddles, Lace Sensors, Vitamin Q cap, CTS pots, on/on switch for the bridge pickup, Sperzel locking tuners. Everything on it is black! I dyed the fretboard to an ebony look. She sounds amazing!! Might be my new #1!!!!

I love them! There very balanced! The bridge screams Les Paul, while the neck and middle are Strat all the way!

It's not really my style but I have to admit it looks pretty slick.

Gretsch just did a jobby like this for thousands of dollars. Good on you to get it in strat form just the way you like it!

That thing reminds of the Batmobile from the TV series (a good thing). Have fun with it!

I've used these boggie rails before. I LOVE them! They always return to pitch. I deck all mine so theres no way it can be wrong! The best part of them is they have zero movement from side to side. Thats where traditional terms seem to fail. They have just a little movement that can mess up tuning stability.
