    It will be fun build project. I've always liked the Strats, with one exception. The volume control gets in my way on occasion. Waiting for pics when your done. Best choice on the color.

    You could always get a custom pickguard made with holes for a master volume and master tone, with nothing in the normal volume control position.

    King Casey, your Strat seems to have the volume control a bit further from the strings than a standard Strat and the three controls look quite bunched up. I take it that was deliberate?

    Yes Simon. It was a blank with just 4 screw holes so I could locate the pickups and volume/tone holes where I wanted.

    cheers, Mark.
