Re-built my Esquire

So Sunday was re-build my Esquire day and it is now finished.

Was going to sell it in its old setup, but now it is staying with me for a bit longer.

Yeah, me too and it is a nice single piece, pretty light as well.

Well, yeah you are not wrong there fella. I have a BK '55 Stagger in the bridge and it sings with this setup.

Nice looking Esquire. Both of my Esquire partscasters have Eldred wiring. I have a tapped Oil City pickup on one of them which is operated by a push pull tone control, this gives an even greater range of tones from a single pickup guitar.

Yeah, Ash winds a mean pickup! 

I have one of those in my other build and it is pretty handy to have the two outputs on tap.
