This one started life as a simple neck replacement. Was going to simply replace the neck on an old Strat I had and was refinishing. Then in a moment of weakness, I decided i wanted swamp ash for a body wood, and ordered up a body as well.

Ended up with:
-maple neck, 24 fret, stainless frets, turquoise stone markers, reverse headstock
-swamp ash strat body, recessed original Floyd rout. Can't remember if this is seafoam or surf green.
-Original Floyd Rose
-Gotoh tuners
-EMG Zakk Wylde set
-pearloid pickguard (also from Warmoth)
-Schaller straplocks

Most of this stuff came from Warmoth.

Plays beautifully, tone is killer, looks bad ass.

Now I need to build something else!

Nice work!  As Strats go, I'd have to say that one's pretty damn Super indeed.  BRRAAANGGG!

 
Are those top frets at all accessible? I would love a strat shape with 24 frets, and figured that the 7/8s strat was my only option.
