At What Point Does A Guitar Cease To Exist?

[Macko1968]

Reading this it would appear it has been appraised as 1971 Strat with just the neck & body being later, non-Fender replacements.

Found in attic.Body and neck replaced.........why ? because it was probably butchered with a locking trem and nut at some point.

Anyone want to buy my Brough Superior SS? It's not all original, however:

the engine's been replaced by a 1.9 diesel (as made by Citroen).

Oh, and the top bit (above the wheels) has been replaced by what appears to be a Citroen body.

Oh, also, the spoked wheels have been replaced by non-spoked wheels.

4 of em.

And it says Citroen on the log book.

And ya need a car licence to ride it.

And by 'ride', I mean drive.

Other than that, it's a genuine Brough Superior.

(Except for the CD player, which is aftermarket, of course)

:S

FWIW, 80s ESPs are supposed to be pretty good

Exactly and why not just list it as an ESP Strat with Original '71 Fender parts?
Also, got to love the old 'found in my Father's attic' and 'I know nothing about Fender Strat's' cobblers!
