Remember the Player Strat body that I refinished? I mentioned I would build something, and I finally have enough parts. Ride along as I assemble and setup the guitar. This will be a one-episode project.

A few parts in the episode:

Nice work! I like the Tuxedo look against the wood stain. Gives it a little more class. Can't beat the value of a MiM Strat. Thanks for taking the time to share it with us!

Regarding "Tip and Ring" on a 1/4" jack.... That came from telephony. My Mom was a telephone operator. Later, much so, I was a telephone technician. I do love that Tip and Ring is still used to describe the points on a 1/4" jack.

Love the 70's look! Would have been nice if the neck had black block inlays. Good job!

Would appreciate your thoughts . . . I like the iconic Strat shape but never use a tremolo.
I don’t like the complexity of the tremolo preferring a hard tailed guitar.
Is a Strat with the trem blocked effectively the same as a hard tailed guitar ? Will it be straightforward to replace strings and tune ?

Do you use any kind of wax on the wood screws? Looks great, by the way!

great stuff, was slightly surprised by how 'hot' the pickups were what was the temperature? ....(as DC goes up with temperature)

Quick question, off topic... do you find the Peterson strobe is worth the $$$ over the Korg for daily use? I just can't justify the cost for home use yet. Thoughts?

After staining, how did you seal the wood?
