This one was great...... Brought back plenty of memories of me building my drop top superstrat in Marks workshop in 2006....

Here's some pics!

It's the left one ?  I didn't built the Siena-red Strat myself, I bought it myself......

The Bailey has undergone a few modifications over the years. I added a humbucker mounting ring, recessed the trem cover plate and after 13 years or so the oil finish got grubby, so I sanded of the top layer and sprayed it with a 2k clear coat.

Thanks for the video Mark and for the memories......

Measure once, cut straight away and maybe you're lucky......
