Hi all,
I finished my scratch body marri strat on the weekend and am very happy with the results.
Body shape is a strat shape with sharper 'SG' style horns.
The headstock has a camphor veneer and I recessed the tremelo cover.
I had to choose between 3 pickguard colours, a white and ivory pearloid and ended up going with the black pickguard matched the dark grain of the marri.
I thoroughly recommend anyone who has built a few PBG kits to start a scratch body build, it so much more rewarding when its finished and you can design any shape you like ! You don't need many power tools.
I just posted a quick sound demo on the video demo threads.
