(ARCHIVE) Partscaster Strat-Style Seafoam Green c2000
- Description
- Guitarchives
Partscaster, finished in seafoam green, recent model. This started life as an SX Strat; one of the earlier ones with an alder body it seems. It's been gutted and refinished and given a relic treatment, so it's a new beast. The neck feels great; it's a slim C shape and the new finish feels superb. The body is wearing a super thin nitro finish in a tasty seafoam, which looks great. It's very light and resonant; this punches well above the pricetag. The tone has that sparkly clear treble and a nice dose of natural bass and attack, it's very pleasing. If you're after a nice little Strat that'll turn a few heads, this one is very cute indeed.
