Here's some pics of my custom selfmade Strat with a Tele neck. In some of the pics my strat is with my RG570.

Specs:

Body: ash
Neck: maple
Pickups: selfmade

Sorry of the bad quality.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks... :P

I didn't have to buy anything. I did it in school so I got everthing I needed from there. I also didn't buy the neck or body, I made them myself. Everything is selfmade except most of the hardware (pups are selfmade).

Wow cool...I'll bet that was a good bit of work there. One question...why aren't the cutaways deeper? Don't your hands hit them? It's not critisism, I was just wondering, that's all.

Actually there are not cutaways at all! It's just like a Tele body, extremely fat.

It gives a nice full sound and doesn't bother me much.
