I was looking for something I couldn't find, and wound up realizing I had another top-route Strat if I ordered a body, so I picked up the one below and proceeded to put it together..
Body - Warmoth Strat with "Special Finish" on the Fire Sale page, Flame Maple on Alder, all black hardware with matching anodized gold pickguard and tremolo cover
Neck - This is a MusicKraft neck I picked up a long time ago because I never saw "reptilian" graining in a Kingwood fretboard (see pic at bottom for detail), but it didn't work on the build I originally bought it for and sat around a year; Kingwood on 5A Flame Maple, 6105 frets, 9.5" radius, MOP dots, black Sperzel locking tuners
Electronics - "Holy Grail" Strat setup, Rio Grande Vintage Tallboy in neck, Rio Grande Half Breed in middle, SD JBJr in bridge. 5-way switch is wired normally, extra toggle flips JBJr into Parallel/Split/Series modes; all 250K pots and .050 NOS ceramic cap.
