Maestro, beautiful guitar!! I also love the Strat, but i don't know if it is entered into the competition. -
how to mount a humbucker directly to the body?
MikeB replied to albertop's topic in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat
You could also, for height adjustment purposes, find the height you want, and heasure from the bottom of the pickup to the body, then make a fillet of wood this size, and glue to the body, then set pickup on top of it, then screw it up. This is really for if you have routed for normal pickup cavity or over-routed. Jammy, thats another idea i was going to suggest! Mike -
You wouldn't consider building that, would you? *shocked*

hi, i am going to order my strat wood, and im sorted all down to the body! im a little in between what i would like. body woods i have a few in mind. gonna use 1 piece bodies. the options are; USA cherry (favourite atm) lacewood imbuya sycamore (maple) ash i know theres lots of woods, but hopefully with your help the best one will be shown, bearing in mind the finish i want. i like the cherry most atm, does anyone have any suggestions though? other woods: neck: maple fretboard: flamed maple pickups will prolly be along the lines of lace sensors or stacked coils etc... i will be building this soon, so i will keep this thread updated with pics and progress, but it will be slow i warn ye! mike

good idea ansil! welldone again!

yep, spot on killah! the pot will be slipping and hitting the other pot, and moving it. take the knob off and tighten the nut holding it on, these come loose at times, it happened exactly the same on my old samick. its on the scratchplate so wood changes wouldnt do it, its usually due to turning the pot too much and loosening the nut. mike
