Just to add another project to the list...
I’ve had this partscaster knocking around for a long while.. the time has come to rejuvenate it.
Fender neck (about 10 years old), Allparts alder body
The neck will be Tru Oil finished. The body- sonic blue or very similar. FW - no SFG here!
The neck is currently sanded on the back (seemed the thing to do back in the day).
First task get the old finish off. With my JBA kit I really have become a slave to the sanding God’s.
Electronic-wise (and thanks for the idea Chuck!) it will have a strat neck and middle pup and standard Tele bridge pup. I love a stratish sound but prefer Teles!
GFS sell these handy pickguards...

Before
After 15 minutes with some 120 grit
A long way to go yet.... not looking forward to sanding the sides...
