Welcome to the club got two bodies sitting waiting for parts and another one that I've been putting together for a year.

Love the natural to color bursts on maple. Have a Carribean and Green need a purple as well. Great Grab!

 

[Schneidas]

Thanks guys!

Ok, here's the second body.

On a sidenote, I think I will go with the plain white pickguard on the other Caribbean burst Strat and use the white pearl on the purple one.

The coloring on this one is very nice. It does that top justice. Congrats.

 

[Schneidas]

Thanks

Here's the current Warmoth family shot (I actually have 3 more Warmoths, but they are at my tech for assembly).

 

[rgand]

Nice selection, there. Looking forward to seeing how they turn out.

 

[Schneidas]

Both came out great!!
The Carribean is my favorite super Strat now.... the Purple is a very close second...

 

[rgand]

Those are beautiful. I particularly like the one with the Carribean burst.

 

[Verne Bunsen]

Man, those turned out beautiful!

 

[TonyFlyingSquirrel]

What bridge is on the bottom one?
Got a close up?

 

[Schneidas]

They are both Gotoh 510 tremolos.
The one on the blue Strat has vintage style steel saddles (and personally, I recommend this).
The purple one has the more modern design and brass saddles. It sounds great, but it doesn't quite fit with the pickguard. You have to either cut off a piece of the pickguard or set it up as my tech did (see pics).
The bridge has a slight ascending cut (most probably, Gotoh realized it wouldn't fit with a normal Strat pickguard, so they cut the bridge plate that way, so the upper part of it can still rest on the body, if a someone likes a "resting" bridge - e.g. like I do).
It plays fine and sounds great, but you have the modern design being a bit in the way of a regular Strat pickguard - so I'm not too big on this design decision by Gotoh.

The Hipshot American Flat Plate I used on my Strat had the same problem. I keep the trem decked, so I chose the other option, and cut out the pickguard. Yours looks great, If I didn't keep it decked, I'd have gone that way too!
