[Kick]

Haha, had to look twice

[Fretworn]

If he hasn't already, Fido looks keen to have a go at it.

cheers, Mark.

I thought s/he was just quality control....

[Paul_H]

Yeah man, massive Yngwie fan! and Brian May fan. Trying to incorporate both their guitar qualities into this build

That will be interesting. Are you going to use Burns pickups and Brian's phase switching?

[guitarmatt89]

phase switching yes, maybe get the burns pickups down the track. never done wiring myself before

[guitarmatt89]

she has a name

[Kick]

Now, that's a brutal headstock. Awesome!

[guitarmatt89]

Thanks Kick!

[guitarmatt89]

Machine heads attached. whats the measurements for putting in the string trees?

[Andyxlh]

Wow that looks awesome!
I'd leave the string trees until you have some strings on, that way you can best judge how to get them equidistant between the strings.
For fore/aft adjustment I'd eyeball a pic of a standard strat

Its been a while but im still working on this build. had a little girl 4 months ago and most of my time and energy has been going towards her.

phase switches installed, have some pickups ready to be ordered
