This custom-built Partscaster brings together selected components to create a guitar that’s both visually striking and highly playable. It’s not a cookie-cutter build — it’s a unique instrument designed to be a true player’s guitar.
Body & Finish
- Full-thickness body (1-3/4”), likely Agathis, with a translucent burgundy satin finish that shows off subtle wood grain.
- Brand-new white pickguard provides a clean, classic contrast.
- Solid, resonant feel with a comfortable weight for practice or gigging.
Neck
- Genuine Squier neck with faint original watermark still visible.
- Previous owner had applied a Fender decal — it’s been removed and the headstock polished to a smooth finish.
- Frets show minimal wear, and all edges have been rounded for a smooth, professional feel.
- Comfortable profile makes it easy to play fast runs or chord-heavy rhythm work.
Electronics & Pickups
- Strat-style neck and middle pickups paired with a Tele-style bridge pickup for extra bite and twang.
- Output readings: Neck – 4.96k, Middle – 5.25k, Bridge – 6.68k.
- Delivers everything from glassy Strat cleans to Tele snap — a versatile tonal palette for blues, rock, indie, or country.
Hardware
- Upgraded Wilkinson full-size tremolo for stable tuning and expressive vibrato.
- Sealed Squier tuners hold tuning reliably.
- Standard 5-way switching with smooth action and clear tone separation.
This Partscaster isn’t about flashy brand names — it’s about playability, tone, and character. With its stylish burgundy finish, smooth-playing neck, and versatile pickup combination, it’s the kind of guitar you’ll keep reaching for whether you’re recording, gigging, or just playing at home.
