    Completely raw/unfinished 1-piece Maple neck?

    I recommend at least a thin oil finish like Charvel or EVH does. That’s feels about as natural as you can get.

    Strat neck w compound radius starting at 7.25'?

    7-1/4" is tight but if you dont need super low action, its very comfy. 7-1/4" to 12" was also immensely comfy when I played a few of those.

    Long Legged pickup direct mount?

    You can order them with the short leg or find them used from basically any Jackson or Charvel.

    Strat neck w compound radius starting at 7.25'?

    7-1/4” to 12” was available on some Fender American vintage hot rods from about a decade ago. You may be able to find one of those used or check out what the fender mod shop offers these days.

    Direct mounting pups n stuffs

    Easier how? Easiest is to slap them in a ring and call it a day direct mounting has always been harder and the machine inserts are the best way to preserve the pickup for future reuse. If you dont care about that then the easiest is to use wood screws.

    New video: Reverse P Bass pickups

    The reverse P is just better balanced for the styles I play. Any chance that gets put "on the menu" for pickguards and bodies?

    Direct mounting pups n stuffs

    He has the #3 part but wood screws arent sold with a thread count. even the Fender listing says its #3x1" long screw. Also in my experience, the #3 wood screws through a humbucker that is tapped for the standard #3-48 threads wont be ruined if you just zip them in with a drill. What I do now...

    2 pickups with blender pot instead of pickup selector switch?

    I would forgo the individual volumes because you have a blend, thus making an individual volume in a single pot. Many basses are wired this way with a Master Volume, Blend, and Tone (sometimes a preamp instead of a tone) but the principle is the same. This is the kind of pot you are looking...

    Changing nut size

    it will give you more room on the fretboard. I know its only a few thousandths of an inch but this kind of thing can be a deal breaker or maker when you are deep in the world of fine tuning your playing. Anecdote time, Jackson and Charvel necks are 2-1/4" wide at the butt end where it attaches...

    Rout for Ilitch Air Coil?

    Is this what you are asking about? https://ilitchelectronics.com/product/lcncs-on-solid-body/ If so, you might be better off using the one for "large cavities" and then either putting it in a Warmoth rear route or ordering a strat with the universal "swimming pool" route and installing it in...
