Deffinately the vintage perloid, it looks much warmer on the body and really fits. I cant wait to see it done!

Pickups showed up today - neck shows up tomorrow!

Some pics!
I think the white pups looks great with the vintage pearl. The contrast gives some kind of vintage modern feel!


Sorry for the bad quality pics!

Gotta love vintage pearl with cream pickups. That looks good.

Got everything soldered together, just waiting for the neck and the bridge to arrive tomorrow! :guitaristgif:

 

[AutoBat]

Have you plugged it in to check the soldering circuit?
If you strum one of your other guitars, then hold this one close enough it oughta make some nice sounds.

 

[The Norwegian Guy]

Everything is tested, and it works fine!  :icon_thumright:
I kinda decided to go with the classic strat knobs as well. They looked sweet on there!

Change in plans regarding the neck.

The postal services around the world was able to have the neck sent from Washington to Norway in 19 hours. SUPER FAST!
BUT... the norwegian postal services is sooooo sloooooow! They declared the package this morning, but they haven't been able to pull their thumbs out of their a*ses and send it to me, so that I could have it before the weekend.

Guess what. It's the same f*in i*iots that had my pickups in "custody" for NINE days!

AAARGH!

You made a good choice with the pickguard/pickup color combo. Extremely classy.

why does the fire burst look so bright on the warmoth builder, did yours look really bright when you built on there or did i do something different

 

[The Norwegian Guy]

I didn't use the CBB (custom body builder). This is a showcase body, and this is the showcase picture.

and this is how it looks in real life.

Wow - that's a beautiful Strat. I love the fireburst finish but it changes color in each photo so I can imagine the depth it has looking at it in person.
