    Update 4:


    I've just discovered a major issue with the body of my Hot Rod Strat, basically the body-routing for the Floyd Rose bridge has been positioned too close to the bridge pickup, this means I have to move each string-saddle back in order to get each string's intonation at the 12th fret accurately set, but even if I move the low E-String saddle as far back as it can go, the 12th fret intonation is still sharp, so, I may need to order a new body for the Hot Rod strat or scrap the body and neck altogether and start again from scratch.

    In addition to that, I just found out that one of the string-saddle locking blocks of one of the original string-saddles on the Schaller Lockmeister bridge cracked and broke in half, so it's no good anymore.


    Update 5:

    Sorry, I'm going to have to scrap the whole Hot rod Strat project.
