Now then questions:
1) Is trans purple the pretty much darkest of candy purple, purple frost and that, as i saw candy purple and was like my candy red precision, and frost seems pinky purple, so trans purple seems the best option.
2) Would the 7/8" jack be the right one for what Les pauls usually have on the side?
3) With flatwounds that im thinking of putting on would 6130's give me the lowest profile frets that i believe they will, whilst still giving me the added ease of a fretted?
4) Does anyone know anyone either in england or somewhere that could do me a transfer to put on this guitar, just a small one on the back as a tribute to someone?
5) Can somebody give me money for this??? hehe XD

Oh and called Tri colour because of the headstock to body colour transition

This wont be picture proven till i get the parts ordered when i know i can afford it, as much as i would put it all on credit card as it would be less than my 700 limit i dont want to be owing that kinda money, haha :toothy12:

 
i sent a message asking sales and they said if i specified it on the order then they would put them on for the 90 dollars extra, i thought that for a start, but emailed them and they said it was fine, or have i been mis informed?  :sad:
 
As for the purples, I don't know which is darker.  They're all different.  

7/8" jack must be used with the electrosocket jack.  The football jack and square jack plates both cover up the 7/8" hole.

I'm confused about the control layout.

They used to offer it for scratch builds.  They later limited it to showcase only items.  They said (a sales guy over the phone) they would eventually be bringing that back.  Maybe they have.

Is there a Tone 1?  Is it a master tone?  Is it only on one pickup?

I'm assuming a master tone control.
Two tone controls is pretty useless without a pickup selector switch. The tones just interact.
 
Yes for now its going to be two volumes master tone, but i might get a hole drilled for a small three way switch for both, single coil, and pwrbckr. then itll be two tones,
and i believe they must of brought it back as they offer it as an option in neck inlays . and well heres an example of it on a jazz neck

 
I did a test using the picture of the strat in trans purple with a warwick wenge headstock and that same bloodwood fretboard and they seemed to blend in well so im pretty sure with the inclusion of black hardware and flatwounds itll merge in nicely. heres that example, very badly done i know, but even if the purples lighter a bit, then the black hardware will merge it in even more.
 
Awesome whats the fingerboard on that? thanks for that havent seen bloodwood and wenge together that close before, cheers, definately going for that :)
