    Nah mate, I just try stuff, sometimes it comes off, sometimes you learn one of the many ways it doesn’t work. I enjoy the trying and the learning.

    What happened with the 3rd and 4th frets? Or is it for some special Frankentreatment we've yet to see?

    Steve is a small guy and through a lot of the 70's and 80's, when he wasn't playing a Les Paul he was play one of a few lefty strats because he felt they hung on his body better than righty ones.

    Looks like one of them is a pen mark and one a slot for the fret. I'm guessing a measurement error that was corrected before cutting.

    After a closer look I think you're spot on Sonic.
