    Star Body - Neck Dive?

    yeah they can get neck dive-y but you can mitigate that with light weight tuners and strap placement.

    I am definitely saving that one in my archives. I know all this but being able to have a handy pic is awesome.

    Hardware advice

    Most Strat knobs, and especially Fender branded ones, do not have the splines molded into them.

    Hipshot staggered tuners : String hole not coming all the way trough

    Locking tuners should have about 1-1/2 turns max. That is the whole point of locking tuners, less wraps = better tuning stability. With more wraps, they will loosen when using the trem causing pitch return problems.

    Hardware advice

    Fender Aged White plastics match Duncan cream pretty well and they sell the 3 knobs and 3 covers in a set if you want it all to match.

    Floating Archtop Style Bridge on Mooncaster

    Archtops usually have well over an inch of clearance because the neck is set in such a way that it is taller than the top of the body to allow for the most resonance of the top. The Moon Caster is set up for a traditional post mounted Tom, which does not give enough clearance for a traditional...

    Route for Schaller Hanes Bridge?

    Electric solidbody guitars that are notably LOUD acoustically

    my first guitar is a thinline tele style my dad and I built its mahogany and a maple top. It very loud acoustically. As for true solid bodies, I have noticed that pickguards can ad a bit of volume becaue they can vibrate or even just the air movement in the chamber created by the pickup/control...

    Can someone mock up a Meadowhawk body and Tele style neck?

    since this uses the 7/8 cavity and in all of Aaron's assembly videos, I see that the recess is cut for a blade switch, I am wondering if you can order a blade switch off menu on the meadowhawk body 🤔

    Consultation on wiring diagram

    You cant do a series/off/parallel with a DP3T switch. You will need a 4P3T switch. https://guitarelectronics.com/3-way-4-pole-on-off-on-mini-toggle-switch-for-guitar-bass/ It will take more room in your cavity but it will work. Also a 3p3t would technically work but I cant find any available.
