                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Anyone tried one of these? How does the body feel/look (shape-wise, width, contours and all)? I'm in the market for an Alder strat body. Checked mercasystems and the body alone would cost Â£153, but my local store has this <a href="http://www.curlymusic.co.uk/index.pl?browse=products&amp;id=296&amp;detail=3">http://www.curlymusic.co.uk/index.pl?browse=products&amp;id=296&amp;detail=3</a> for Â£105.<br><br> I'm guessing I could strip the repaint and do a rejob on that (as I was planning to get an unfinished alder body and paint it). I know the rest of the kit would be cheapo compared to the gear I'm looking to have as my, um, 'standard set up' but, as I'm getting into modding, having a bunch of spare parts is no problem to me (may well be a boon) and for the price, if the body's basically the same thing getting all that for free and paying a lower price seems like a great idea. And thoughts on this guys?<br><br>If its any help, I'm probs gonna be floating the trem  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted: but I was factoring in buying all the hardware (eventually) anyway so replacing the squire's trem if necessary is no problem.<br><br>I'll head down there over the weekend and give one of these a try, but I thought I'd float the idea here, as I know there are a bunch of people on here with way more experience than I in this.<br><br>Props for posting comments!  :D]]></content:encoded>
