Pretty Nice Reliced Body!
Even though it was a hand relic body to me, it looks pretty good and not the phony looking cheap relic job. It is a heavy relic piece and is pretty light in weight, but not too light, it's good. I have not built it up yet, just tried some dry fitting with necks and bridges that I already have, a Floyd Rose and a standard tremolo bridge. and all fit well. The neck pocket is 56 mm wide, ( more import type of neck) but it will accommodate a smaller Fender or Fender licensed neck pretty well, just not as tight as a 56 mm or slightly above 56mm neck. So this body is of good quality and versatile and in my opinion you can't go wrong for a nice relic build partscaster, I can't wait to put mine together with this body I just have to decide on bridge type and neck style...shredder or more vintage feel! I'll post images after I am finished. Update 11/21/23 After a while I finally finished my build with this body and it went pretty well after I figured out what I wanted other than just another relic stratocaster, just something a little bit different. I included a picture of the guitar.

Great Body
This body worked out really well. I had a Might Mite neck laying around so I figured I’d put it to good use. The neck pickups and the rest of the electronics fit great. The Trem system is a Super Vee Bladerunner. No need for any additional adjustments.

Nice body
Used this for my srv replica build. I am very happy with the build. I used Tex Mex pickups and the sound is very hot. i did not need to route out any wood. You just need to drill the bridge screws and will need a long drill bit to do drill out the tremolo Claw screws so you do not damage the body.

Good quality for the money
I wanted to build a Stevie Ray Vaughan tribute guitar without being a direct copy, very pleased with the patina and the overall look of the body. It saved me a ton of time trying to Patina one myself and to be honest I doubt I could have made it as nice

Fantastic strat body
This thing looks, feels and sounds absolutely amazing. Very resonant and lively super lightweight body. No surprises with standard shapes or sizes. Take your time making sure you drill the bridge holes in the right place. If you're on the fence at all buy this one. You won't regret it.

Perfect
Awesome body, easiest build ever. Relic looks great and not cheeezy. Sizes, openings, spaces etc. are all spot on. Perfect for my Tom DeRelic strat.

Great price
This was a fun build. My roasted maple neck fit perfectly. Body is very musical and light weight. I know the relic look isn’t for everyone but to me I think it looks great. I’ll be buying another soon since you can’t beat the price.

Good strat body
No issues with body. Put on a Warmoth neck and EMG loaded pick guard. Great body for money. Relicing is better than I was expecting. I think it looks good. Only think I had to do was drill out neck holes to make slightly bigger so neck would seat properly. Took couple hours to put together and setup.

This is a really resonant body.

The item is at least 90% as you see in the pictures. Not giving the seller a bad rating because they probably had no idea. I bought this based on the pictures provided which clearly show the claw holes are predrilled. They were not. And it's not easy to drill yourself. False advertising. And lists it as an Alder body, I have like 3 or 4 fender strats and Alder is heavy, this body feels a bit on the light side to me. Other than that it's a great purchase.
