I've had to put some new music over the top of a couple of bits of the video due to copyright claims on the tracks I originally used. Please excuse the sudden pauses in the voice over!

[johnvaughan]

Best present I've ever had - if only I could play :) . Remind me not to use that purple towel when I'm next at your place.

[Ronin-kewm]

This is by far the best relic video on the net

[edwardtroth]

Quite easily some of the best relicing I've seen.

[KRE]

Loved this and the strat build video. What an awesome present. And yes, that brick wall is becoming iconic! Looking forward to going through some of your covers and indeed hope to see more guitar-nerd videos as well, as someone who's starting to want to do something similar.

Wow this is the best relic I've ever seen it's heavy relic'd but subtle. Really realistic

[paulburton]

Looks and sounds awesome. Fascinating to watch the build process too

[craighayes]

Brilliant. What a great gift. Your dad must of been very proud. Well done

[Frank-Watching]

The build came out clean hope your dad loved it

[ShaneIrwin]

Well done on both the guitar AND the video production. You really nailed it all. Thanks for making this. I got some great advice from you. I'm working on a Squire Strat for myself right now.

Amazing relic it looks so cool, looks like it could be in the window of a vintage guitar shop in Denmark street, really loved the red scratch plate as well :)

[stupidthefish]

The pick guard matching the pillows wasn’t an accident

[anaximenesdemileto]

lol, looks like awesome realistic relic to my eyes. Excellent job mate, keep it up ;)

[BeerandGuitars]

Wow, nice! Always wear gloves dude with that acid. Looks like a great build.

[jessefildesmusic]

Hey Alfie, great build! Did you have to file down the frets on the neck or was it good to go as is?

[ryanxyz]

How does the decal look on the headstock? I've seen other videos where they sand it down to remove any bump/blend it into the wood

[epec]

Northwest guitars, who supply the spray you're using, advise on using thinners to remove the laquer from the frets. Works so easily. Next time 👌🏾

[christsamcodilla]

That is beautiful! What spray did you use for the neck?

[Pavel_Franta]

wow.... it sounds like squier but looks different 🤯

[franksolli]

Great work. Thanks for sharing.
How many layers you had with nitro on body and how long had to wait before sanding?
