I finally took some pictures of the quad Stringmaster I am redoing. It isn't all complete but is far enough along so you can take a look see.
I've asked Rick if he would post the pictures for me. So when he gets the time, you will have a chance to see my quad.

Thanks sooooooo much, Rick!
That last picture is another project of mine. I got ahold of some Stringmaster parts and 1/2 of a double neck. I combined them into a long scale (26") guitar. I'm still waiting on a few parts but it is coming together real nice.

As Rick can attest to, those quads are really hard to come by. I got this one off of e-bay and , believe me, it wan NO jewel!
It had been spray painted blue, not once but twice. I have some parts being rechromed but they should be ready any time. This model quad (8/55) came with the slide neck selectors and I am putting them on new. This guitar is the long scale (26") and should have tone to the bone.

I know you can't go by the serial number on the volume and tone plate but the number there is: 002.
The date in the tuner cavities is 9/55.
