Gavmeisters Blackie Strat

[Gavin1393]

Working on a number of projects simultaneously.
The Alder body on this Strat will be painted Black! Surprise
I will be using Chrome Tuners, Maple Fretboard with black MOP markers. The neck is also Maple. This is a standard Tremolo bridge. Pickguards and other accessories will be white. A 5 way switch, white controls and a Clapton Mid Boost will be added. If I can figure out how to do it I might even give this a 'delux' tag by fitting a Fender S-1 switch into the mix. Scotty ?
In the bridge I will be installing Di Marzio Area 67 pickup. The middle and neck pickups will house Fender Fat 50's.

I think I've seen some diagrams with a 5-way super switch, S-1, and mid-boost combo around, got a feeling it was with Lace sensors, not sure have to google. But, if you've got a particular configuration or variation in mind I'm sure the combined brain power on here will be able to come up with some options.

Even with just a couple of push/pulls and a super switch you could have lots of series/parallel options plus the mid boost, maybe something like the and/or 'Plus' and 'Series' settings on this.

Thought this might have been a Dave Gilmour Black Strat copy with Fender Custom '69 & Fat '50s, Seymour Duncan SSL-5.

But this sounds just as good

Other than the Reverse Headstock Carbonita that Keith Urban uses, this is a replica down to the pickups he uses of his "RC" guitar from the Fuse Tour.

Here's the thread I was thinking of with the 5-way super switch, S-1, and mid-boost diagram.

Updated pic's of my Blackie...showing intended pick guard.

I have completed the shielding already in the second pic.

I am expecting this one to be the real dark horse, so far it has been the smoothed ride in terms of building. Everything has worked first time! Which means I haven't had to pay too much attention to it and have 'bonded' least with it...

Licensed Fender Necks...and an intruder!
Danocaster is the Tele shape, Silver and Blackie are the Strat shaped headstocks.
