Hi Guys.

Welcome Lee. Doesn't matter what brand guitar you have, we all learn from each other's experiences here. Enjoy!

Hi mate, welcome along.

I can fully understand the sentimental value in resurrecting your first axe. Way to go.
Good news that the replacement neck fits too. Your off to a great start.

Hey Lee, my very first electric guitar was a Cimar strat copy back in 1983 and it actually wasn't a bad guitar at all, Your journey has begun and your addiction starts here . There's a whole bunch of information on the forum and some great guy's here for advice if you need them including a couple of Luthiers for the hard stuff.

welcome Lee, good luck with the rebuild, good to see you are resurrecting an old favourite electric axe, good luck and ask plenty of questions there's heaps of knowledge and advice on the forum. Start a build diary in the non pitbull gear section

Welcome Lee. I'm from Sydney as well, but from the Northern suburbs. I'm possibly closer to Gav than I am to you. There was someone from Strathfield here at one point, can't remember any other Sydneysiders.
