This hand-made (no CNC) custom body is constructed from two pieces of high grade, Superior Alder, personally sourced and selected by me specifically for this build. The finish is a unique Burgundy Mist nitrocellulose lacquer which accents the curves and contours of the body nicely. Small pilot holes for the strap buttons and standard hardtail bridge have already been drilled, and if you'd like, I'm happy to discuss installation of hardware for an additional charge. As you can see in the pics, I've routed for two single coil Strat style pickups, as well as a control cavity that will fit two pots and a pickup selector just as you would find in a Tele style guitar.
Here's the specs:
- Weight= 4 pounds, 6 oz.
- Color= Burgundy Mist
- Wood= Two piece, center joined, Superior Alder
- Pickup configuration= Two Strat style single coils
- Neck pocket= Fits standard Strat style necks and most Tele style necks
- Scale length= 25.5
- Output jack hole= Drilled for standard 7/8"
The body in the photographs is the actual body you will receive. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
