That's cool. I was a dedicated Tele freak until Godin bit my butt. Still have one, and recently dealt a killer thinline partscaster.

Can you describe the nocaster? Like, parts sources, finish, etc? Thanks!

Peace, Mooh.

It has a one piece ash body (which is about 5lbs) with a thin blonde finish a vintage style maple neck with kluson tuners. The pickups are Fender Nocaster's modern wiring with a black cat paper cap on the tone. The bridge is a fully adjustable Wilkingson one and I have an electrosocket. The main idea was that to make a guitar that was a close to the original as possible but with a couple of modern updates to mker it play a little better. The bridge means that I have perfect intonation, the tuners have better workings so they don't jump like the old ones do and the electrosocket won't fall out like the originals do. She's a really nice sounding guitar I have a nice sweep on the tone so can get a lot of sounds.

Cool. I had one of the OLP knock-offs and it was pretty good for what it was. Musicman/Ernie Ball are great guitars. Fantastic necks.

Really like my '72 Strat and I once played a Yamaha SF that was an absolute peach (always wish I could pick one up on the cheap but they tend to command a realistic price). Apart from that I'm irrationally attracted to BC Rich Mocking birds :?
