I am looking to bolt my conversion neck onto a Soloist body. Was disappointed to see you cant get an S body with a top boat route (was just going to make a pickguard). I currently have a Lonestar Strat with H.s.s. configuration but would like to do a H.S.H. build for the Soloist body. Does anyone know if I need to do the 24 fret neck pickup reposition with a conversion neck on this body because of the neck overhang?
Not sure I understand. You have a conversion neck. From the title it suggests it’s 24 frets. You say you want to “bolt” to your soloist body.
Then you switch gears and talk about a “boat” route for a Strat. I imagine you mean pool route.
“Bolt” the neck you have to the body you have. As far as pool routes, they may be off menu, but I can assure you they do it.
A neck pickup reposition only needs to be done if you order a 24 fret neck.
You mention you have a conversion neck, but never reference the important info of: is it 24 fret or not?
