[@CitizenOfEverywhere]

Regarding yellowing with age - I have a '87 American Standard Strat (in Torino Red), and its pickguard and controls have yellowed considerably. However, the pickup covers have not yellowed at all. As I've been the sole owner, I know these are all original parts. The yellowing on the pickguard is due to UV light - under the controls there remains a white ring. Also, paint on this guitar is polyurethane, and its not worn off or checked at all (no surprise), but it has noticeably settled into the wood grain, to the point its clearly a 3 piece body. It looks nothing like these relic'd guitars (which I really like), but its definitely got its own "vintage" vibe going on. Just imagine, its 33 years old now. When I bought it in '87, the only strats that were that old were all made in 1954!

[@wandcfirst]

Each to their own obviously, but twice now when I *wanted* to buy a Fender Custom Shop - I walked out with a Suhr! :D

Admit it. Pete specifically made that purple Strat for himself, so he can own a matching Strat/Tele set. As for the blue sparkle, and the TV Jones, I am so into this. But, it has the STRAT bridge, instead of the horrid ash tray bridge with hedgehog saddles. I 100% approve of this decision. Seriously, Fender, the Strat-style hard tail needs to be the standard-issue.

[@Gynra]

I bought a brand new Stratocaster some years ago, and fell over as I was leaving the shop, knocking a chunk out of the lower bout (no, I wasn't drunk: it was winter and the steps were icy) . Instant relic! And I saved myself a few thousand pounds in the bargain! Seriously, I'm not going to hate on relics, even though I don't care for them myself. But you posed a question at the beginning, as to why someone would buy an expensive Stratocaster copy (I prefer "homage"... [tongue in cheek mode off]) rather than the real article. Personally, I would happily buy a British "Strat" hand made to my own specifications, so that is unique to me, and that is set up is to my liking, straight from the factory. That doesn't mean to say I would turn down a Fender version: in fact I do have a genuine Fender Stratocaster. And yes, it's the one I "relic-ed" falling over.

[@Southgatemusic]

In 64 or so they changed the pickguards from the ones that went mint green to a material that would remain stable for longer. So 64 was probably one of those transitional eras where you'd find some of both. So Pete's could be an original scratchplate

28:00 Little story: I used to live in London (moved to America in 2018) and always been quite like lazy to go to Guilford and check Andertons’s shop.. despite of being a fan of their channel and online shop.. back in March this year I did a cheeky business trip to London and took the chance to go to Guilford and check Pete’s 64 .. tried the Olympic white, the candy apple red, did not feel right, then I kept messing around with several guitars.. nothing called my attention .. on my way out of the Custom Shop room next to the exit door I found a very not very nice looking guitar (my taste) hanging just in the corner... I picked it up who knows why.. and played an open G chord.. it changed everything that day.. I decided to take it to the sound booth in order to hear her roar with an amp.. a staff member looked at me with the guitar waiting and he said: “that’s a pretty cool axe”...my answer was: “don’t like the colour nor the gold hardware and white tuners... but sounded amazing”. Once plugged the guitar was a beast..as soon as I left the booth I asked the price.. my jaw dropped, more than what I would pay for a guitar... on the train back to London, looking at KZbin I see Pete and Captain testing these guitar and the Captain was playing the one that I just got my hands on a few minutes before, maybe a sign?.. Fee weeks later, sitting at home and with a brand new 63’ willcutt reissue recently bought online, which did not have the magic I felt back in Guilford.. It dawned on me that you don’t turn 40yo every day ;)... The video of the Sage Green strat that is on my lap right now: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIfMhmqNirSVgaM&feature=share let alone that now I love the colour, golden hardware and pearly tuners ;)

The older I get, the more I appreciate relic guitars, as I don't have another 35 years to relic it myself by playing it. My old Les Paul doesn't have any paint missing, but it does have yellowing, chips in the finish around the edges and the finish itself is so cracked, it looks like a road map, from that time when it had to ride under a Greyhound bus in the winter. The back has some buckle rash, but it merely mottled the finish. It's also ridiculously heavy. They really built 'em to last.

It's not "the story" or anything like that, it's just that relicing looks cool. And frankly, a guitar is an instrument for me. I play it. Everything else comes second. Including the memories and such.
