Oh my goodness, this turned out amazing! You've really got a knack for resurrecting abused old Fenders! I absolutely love that colour. Very CFM-like. Looks fantastic with the white guard.

That's lovely, great work fixing the binding. That colour is a great match for CFM too.

Having seen the initial thread really looks like you grabbed a steal!

Looks even better in the sun. 8) Even the naked Mute looks good - more chrome can never hurt right?

I kinda like foamless mutes as finger rests - I don't think I've ever actually used one as a mute!

Those red black and white switches really make this.
