One of those JV August '82 SQUIER Strats

This came up a week ago on the bay. export model with Japanese pick guard and pickups. Clean export model with a neck date from august 82. Did some research and apparently the dubious models came out in october, and later. Anything pre-october is meant to be high build. Apparently the first run and second run are the same guitar but with different decals on the neck, which of course means the collectors pay more for the first run.

meanwhile...the ZXR750R bits n bobs project suddenly got ignited...

when I saw this creation.
I have a stack of parts currently on the kitchen floor. All parts from a ZXR750R/K project that I started after my own original R/K was stolen for the second time.....so I started buying parts...

It's about time I started bolting things together...this looks awesome...
