I’m sorry Black ends (but I thought that was the most desirable colour, without a doubt?)

There's a company making relic versions of their studio gear - why does a compressor look like it was dragged behind a truck instead of sitting in a studio rack for 30 years? Who knows?!

'89 Squier II Pearly-White Korean Case Queen - $300 (Plymouth, MN)
https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/msg/d/minneapolis-89-squier-ii-pearly-white/7603452824.html
Hold your breath, here she is. 1989 Squier II Made in Korea stratocaster. This beauty has slept her entire life in the peaceful confines of a velvety pitch black hard case.
There is no wear on this thing, my friend: no fret wear, no neck pocket finish cracks, no blemish anywhere. She is complete, and original.
After that slumber, however, she deserved some attention. I took this one apart, cleaned up the fret end sprout and polished the frets, F-One oiled the board, flushed out the electronic components, straightened out the neck (just a very small touch of forward bow - 4mm truss rod wrench, turns freely) restrung with D'Addario 9-42 gauge strings, and lovingly finished with a spray and wipe of Meguiar's auto detailer. Then plugged in and played Zeppelin's Since I've Been Loving You and cried a little in joy.
The pickups all read 8.5 KOhms resistance, which is a touch hotter than most strat single coils, which is nice. The action is set to a straight 2.0mm across the board, with plenty of adjustment at both the bridge and the truss rod to tweak to your taste.
Includes hard case in Excellent condition and with keys, whammy bar, and a tuner.

Yeah, green snail is a new one for me too. Apparently refers to this:

Basically just another type of mother-of-pearl.
And insofar as its hideousness, I will have you know, sir, that my long-dead grandmother would have loved this thing.

NORDSTRAND NJ4 4 STRING VINTAGE JAZZ BASS PICKUPS - $80 (Minnetonka)
These were previously installed but weren’t to my taste.$180 retail, yours for $80 cash.
This is a vintage style single coil pickup made with 60s era correct Heavy Formvar wire, alnico V magnets, and wound with a programmable CNC winder that simulates a vintage hand wound pattern. The combination of the HF wire in correspondence with the simulated hand wind produces the pickup's lowered resonant peak, which is the source of the hypnotizing ambrosia that is the NJ4's divine high end. Between its high and low end frequencies, this pickup produces a full-bodied sound that replicates the drive synonymous with 60s vintage tone.

someday science will know how to perfectly wrap a metal wire around a small cylindrical magnet. Until then, we'll have all this hypnotizing ambrosia.
