FWIW most if not all of Carter’s used inventory are consignment pieces so plan to offer 85% of asking to start. It’s a gorgeous instrument but I personally don’t care for the P ‘90’s, and 10 LB is a heft, so if nothing else it’s nice to see an instrument that you haven’t before, and be reminded about how great Hamer’s builders were. ☮️

A PSA shout out FOR ORG MUSIC, who is in the process of reissuing the original Funkadelic titles from the original WESTBOUND MASTERS. Many of these original pressings have been impossible to find and or very expensive for decades. Any vinyl released in the past 20 years has been cut from lousy old digital files. Currently up for preorder is Maggot Brain, a universally lauded funk rock masterpiece. Check ‘ em out. https://orgmusic.com/collections/funkadelic

Well well, I wondered if Fender had ever produced a guitar like I described: 1: RH body, RH trem, RH pick guard, 2: LH pickup array, LH peghead. And, the answer appears to be YES! Hendrix Woodstock white with the large peghead is a big plus unfortunately, I believe the Japan Fender “ST 68” series guitars have basswood bodies (boo) can anyone confirm this? https://reverb.com/item/94978007-fender-st-68-stratocaster-reissue-mij-jimi-hendrix otherwise, this might be in my cart. Watcha think PEEPS?

Thinking further about a similar build, I believe the novelty of the lefty trem would wear out quickly, FOR ME, but as @kizanski mentioned, the feel of the low E string is appreciably looser with the lefty headstock. So, I may try to conjure up something just like @santellavision did (congrats on a Beautiful guitar by the way), *except*, keeping the RH TREM. A traditional right handed pick guard, OH, and a LARGE JIMI approved headstock, also. Can Anyone comment on who is producing the best made to order pickguards these days?
-
Yes to all that
-
Ain’t You gon hafta rout the body for the LH PICKUP orientation ? Maybe not if you have a swimming pool route on the body.
-
Adding: I guess the configuration I mentioned above would resemble a Fender SRV Strat, plus A LH peghead and LH pickup orientation, YEAH!
-
@santellavision Hey Arnie: I seem to recall that you had one of these on order, if so, did you receive it? Thoughts? Thanks I’ve been thinking about these since your earlier post, if I was to order one of these, I think I’d go with something close to the black one in the picture, keeping the LH peg,head, trem and pickup orientation but also keep a conventional RH pickguard. color TBD.
