The look what I bought thread
LOL, yeah I know. But it goes with all of the other ARC parts in my bay. Been looking for one for a while, finally found a good deal on one. I've still got more than enough "bling" to blind ya.
Cool tat's Kenny
Nice...now it's complete...well, at least ARC stuff

Right on... when I first saw the post I was wondering if it was from actual foot/hand print - very cool... she must have been born at 11:15
Yessir.
Engine bay is fully ARC'd out minus the intake which I would never run since the FuRookie looks so much cleaner.

the hands are actually pointing at the date she was born which is 11/3. it confuses the hell out of people but i knew it would going into it. but thats how i wanted it
At least its clear that it reps time of birth - just in month/day instead of hour/min
Long live Dimebag Darrell!
btw, I'm pretty sure its a Broadcaster - I've never had the serial number traced, but it has a Bigsby tailpiece so I suspect it might be pre Tele... on the other hand, it also has two Humbucker pickups (instead of typical single coil pickups) - so it might just be a mutt put together by someone...
I bought it used about 25 years ago and it sounds way cool - deep tone (unlike standard Tele's) so I've kept it all these years (all the other electrics I've been through are gone)...

Here's Fender's serial number look-up page: http://www.fender.com/support/usa_instruments.php. It might be able to help you pin down the year yours was made.
My current pride-and-joy is my Eric Johnson signature Stratocaster. I slapped some DiMarzio Virtual Vintage pickups in it last year ('Area 61' in the bridge and 'Area 58' in the neck and middle positions), and I absolutely love it.
