If you're a die hard Strat fan, look away, avert your eyes to something pure.. for I have sinned,...and it feels great!!
Nice work!
Looks like a blonde bombshell to me so far.
Getting interestinger.
Lordy! That's a stunner Bargey. Me want, big time!
cheers,
Gav.

love the shape Bargey nice carving and shaping bro. I might experiment with something similar with my kit. I'm planning metallic blue for mine.
Lets hope that veneer is wide enough, looks like you shaved a bit of body width but it must be at least 310 or 315mm wide.
That headstock shape is killer, love it bro.
Humming along nicely page 7 !

Cheers fellas, it's not quite as square on the back end as my original concept and the back rake is a bit steeper, but It's still within the realms of what I envisioned, all in all pretty happy.
@Wokks, 300mm exactly so yeah should have about 4mm to play with if my calculations are correct, looking forward to seeing what you come up with for your one.
Headstock/neck all sanded and white base coat's on.
