I saw a cool as shit Allparts Strat body at NAMM that got me thinking about another non-Floyded 3 SC build...it was a 2-tone burst with a satin finish rather than the usual super-high gloss clear topcoat. It'd be perfect for a relic job, but it only comes in Alder...not my fave wood tone-wise, but it sure is purty!

The Discovery Channel did a tour of the Gibson plant for one of their "how'd they build that" shows a few years back... you gotta figure it's a more labor-intensive process with the glued-in neck and the laminate top, etc. - but still, they ARE a bit steep in price...
I watched that. Pretty cool. The Fender factory is very close to where I live. Would LOVE to work there. I'm sure there are some basic things I could start off as I learned. But I'm sure a billion applications are received every year.

I'm sure they get tons. A guitar blogger friend of mine (who's a pretty awesome classical player in her own right) works at the main FMIC office in Scottsdale ...seems like a dream gig either way.

Here's my two traditional Strat mutts...built the Sunburst one in 2001 with Warmoth parts, built the Purple one in 2004 from a body I found in a pawnshop in Van Nuys and a Warmoth neck. They both sport the same Dimarzio Virtual Vintage pickup combo (Solo, '54, and Blues models) and Fender America Vintage bridges. They both sound killer, but the Purple one SLAYS the Sunburst one sound-wise - it's a 1-piece Ash body as opposed to the Sunburst's 3-piece Mahogany/Flamed Maple drop-top. Though I always order necks to the same specs contour and nut-width-wise, the Sunburst's neck shape is a little fatter and not quite as comfortable as my other necks, might swap it out for another one someday...At some point I wanna put FU Strat Big Blocks on the bridges.
For some reason my BB camera hates pearloid pickguards...it's almost impossible to take a picture of 'em that doesn't come out at least slightly blurry...weird.
A guy asked me to build one for him a couple of weeks ago...figuring I'd be a nice guy I quoted him a price roughly $200 over what the parts would cost me and he balked...what, like I'm supposed to do it for FREE??
