Finished up this Strat style custom build recently! Collage of making a bone nut, doing some fret work, and the finished picture at the end! Kind of weird working with a leather pickguard for this build, but it was a fun build and turned out pretty cool!

Just showing that Strat from yesterday all wired up and got the shielding paint applied to the electronics cavity! Probably can’t see it too well in the first pic, but we went with gold pickguard screws and switch tip, which I think really pop with the leather pickguard.

Wiring up this leather pickguard for the strat build last week! It was definitely weird wiring this one up as the leather obviously moved more than a stiff pickguard normally would. Always fun trying new things though for sure! Used Bourns pots, Oak Grisgby 5-way blade switch, Orange Drop cap, and Switchcraft output jack. Just like a lot of the wiring harnesses available in the bio!

Forgot to post a complete picture awhile back of the green 7 string Ibanez style copy all finished up and ready to go back home! Installed a new Official Floyd Rose bridge, leveled frets, replaced electronics with CTS pots, Oak Grigsby switch, Switchcraft output jack, and Kent Armstrong pickups. Then finally did a full setup and strung up with D'Addario and Company ‘s 10-59. Link in the bio to the online shops for all wiring setups, pedals, and cables.
