Y’all sick of relics yet? I hope not! My sig Valkenburg “EVL1”

Looks awesome, Jer! You've created a ton of guitar related content over the years. You deserve a signature guitar.

Thanks man! Appreciate that! Speaking of which, I gotta get some vids of this! Lol.

Sweet! Essentially what I would build and planned to do with a parts caster back when I was motivated but now I am more focused on working out and building bro beach muscles... if you guys price these right and not at 5k, these might have a good run.

Yeah this is really my dream “strat”. And pricing is VERY competitive in this market. This will be about $2799 with hardshell case.

Very cool! Kind of reminds of the Henrik Charvel but in black. The H/S pickups are right up my alley too. Only thing I would change would be to make it a hardtail.

Yeah I hear you. I have heavy tension springs and deck the bridge so I can do lower tuning with no issue but still dive. The Highwood saddle totally eliminate the poking screws at the bridge.

I don't like relics but I really dig this one!

I'm not usually a fan either but this one grabs me. Plenty of character and "interest".

Love how the neck pickup is slanted in a way to make the low strings brighter and top strings warmer. I‘ve always felt that’s how Strat/Télé bridge pickups should be oriented but I guess Hendrix had that going on when he reverse strung his Fenders.

Agreed 100%.

I even feel this way regarding bass-PU placement as well.

Essentially, it's a no-brainer method of reducing flubbiness / tubbiness, which is useless-and-annoying in a mix context IMHO.

Check the op now?

Thank you Jez!

Yeah that was something I really wanted. I’ve been a 1 hum/1 single guy for ages. I saw one of the guys from Mercyful Fate did this as well as Jake E Lee on his charvels. Had to do it.

Dude from Solitude Aeturnus always rocked a strat that had a cool setup sorta like that
