      He heated them to soften the glue or crap that gets in there from skin etc to remove the toothed frets without damaging the wood too much
      it is a technique often used. I think it is even covered in Dan Erlewine's great book on the subject. Much of the rest is also credible I have restored and built many guitars and customised many too using very similar methods. It is a great pastime and helps kick the trauma of my career as a medical professional.

I have seen people wet the wood and then use the heating iron to soften the glue etc . Not something i have ever done but i will check it out on an old scrap neck. Lessons can always be learned. Personally i like to experiment with new wiring schemes as my favourite part. Thanks for the info, stay safe brother.

    Rusty Restore...That is not ''Fender Stratocaster 1992''...Fender did not produce any plywood body guitars in 1992...and... changing the neck with a Squier neck made in Korea does not make it a Fender Stratocaster either...The VN3 serial number denotes that the neck you decided to put on the guitar was made in Korea at the Sunghan factory in 1993 and that it is a Squier Stratocaster...Fender only makes guitars in the USA and Mexico and never in Korea...

    I bought an old beat up Strat in the 70s for $125. It was painted with latex and had a dove painted on it (hippie guitar), and later, I sold it to a friend who restored it. When he took off the neck, there was a small plate marked 'May 1963'. I have heard that Leo Fender personally hand-built them until 1964. I was military at the time and shipped out, never seeing my friend again. Always wanted to know what the deal really was. Maybe I lost a gob of money.

    From a guitar collector’s perspective I really wish you would have cleaned up the original paint leaving the flaws and maybe clear coating it. It could have been a really awesome custom build, but it turned out like anything you could buy off Amazon. A piece of my soul died when you stripped the paint completely off that incredible relic guitar body. Everything else was spot on. You could have sold that “beat up/restored guitar for double what you actually did. Rules for old guitars. Make it play great, don’t erase the history.

      No one cares about the history of a cheap plywood guitar made in some impossible to identify factory in Asia. They are worth almost nothing.

      Well put !!! There are kids out there would have loved that guitar .
      This may have been a way overdone resto/ rebuild type thing . But in comparison to the junk a lot of us started with , this would have been sweet.

    That's not a Fender Stratocaster by any means. It's a Squier Strat copy with a cheap Chinese firewood body. I wouldn't have wasted my time with it honestly. But it's a far cry from what it used to be! Your video making skills are far and above from most people do on UA-cam. Thank you for sharing this with us. It was very entertaining.

    Based on the year made and the plywood body, coupled with the headstock shape my best guess is that this is a Squier Stratocaster made in Korea in either the Samick or the Young Eum factories. I have a parts-caster I love that uses one of those bodies, in fiesta red.

      The headstock doesn't match any Squier model. This is some Asian replica not done by Squier nor Fender.

      @@murrayguitarpickups9545 I have a Squier Affinity with that body, and it's not supposed to be made out of plywood, yet, it is. I really don't think it's a fake one, since affinities are not even worth faking, but, I don't really care anyway, it's a cheap guitar regardless.

      @@San_Vito I looked up the serial number on the headstock and it stated it was a 1990s reissue made in Japan. But the plywood body is definitely a Korean Squier body. I am thinking this is a parts guitar mating that 90s reissue neck with that body.

    very well restored. But this guitar has a pretty thin tremolo for a Fender and the neck plate didn't have a Fender logo. it somehow looks artificially outdated.
