Got a quilt maple top Warmoth strat body for Christmas 2011... I've made very very slow progress on it, but wanted to share a few pictures.
Here is a picture after my initial deep blue dye job but before I added a red pinstripe binding.
neck - curly maple with reverse CBS headstock:
Fretboard (rosewood from Stewmac):
All the wood based pieces together:
Now I have to taper the fretboard, install the truss, and laminate the fretboard to the neck.
This will have a pair of Kinman single coils (Woodstock) along with a Hipshot bridge, and a Pearly Gates Humbucker in the bridge position.
Inlays are atomic orbitals, hence the 'Chem-o-caster'
Lots more photos here.
