Hey,,, Thanks for replying! This is my first Strat,,, I've had my buddy's modified Japan Strat here for a few years,,,, so I didn't have any trouble with the "screw on parts", electronics and set up... I've read that they use lacquer on them, but I'm not ready to strip/sand and re paint it yet... It had a small gouge on the back edge that I filled with Kitty Hair from my Corvette rebuilding days!!! The acrylic lacquer primer didn't seem to react badly with the finish on the git body, so I guess its acrylic lacquer also... Was hoping Fender offered touch up paints in the stock colors, but it doesn't look like it...
Maybe there's a close matching Krylon color that will work for now?
I would think scuffing the old finish and using a similar type paint would work OK for you,, but I'd try it in the spring box first to make sure its compatible...
Thanks for the link...
