As long as you did it after that pic was taken. That low E is waaaay off

I'm still jealous though Love that maple board, love the pickups and that color. A very nice Strat you have there

Get yourself one of those big aftermarket sustain blocks for the trem, and you may have a 10 year keeper on your hands.

Re: New Strat build!!!

I think good choice on going with the single sized humbucker, IMO it keeps it looking classy. Nice.

Re: New Strat build!!!

Tasty build ! those hotrails are killer

Although JIM is right...Your bridge is raised like a mofo on the low E side.
