Not putting this in Work In Progress because it has no Warmoth parts (except for a trem cover).
My friend gave me this Squire and I'm going to fix it up a bit and turn it around as a student guitar on CL for some cash.
I should have taken a before pic of this thing, it was filthy and covered in ugly stickers, some of them half peeled off, sticker goo all over it, years of fretboard gunk too. The pickguard was yellowed (and not in a cool vintage looking way, just nasty!) It even had crayon markings on it.
I see some potential with it though as a guitar for someone just starting out. So I have just a few small changes I'll do to make it look presentable and give this old Squire a new life. Ordered a new pickguard and thinking of maybe using chrome pickup covers with some round top chrome knobs.
This will be a good opportunity to learn how to drill on a finished body too!
