Hey, Derek
No harm no foul. Not rude, just succinct and to the point.
Like your website. I've been sketching an original design since high school (that's 1970... sheesh!), and I'd like it to be my first build. Funny to see your original sketch, reminded me so much of mine (not so much the actual design as the execution of the drawing!)
Thanks all for the replies. I'm still in the exploratory phase of just what's involved in this; actual build probably won't start 'til spring. Still feeling out what woods are best for good sustain, whether wood resonance actually makes any difference (pickups being magnetic, how does wood fit in??), neck thru -vs- bolt-on, ... the usual list of unknowns. Also trying to track down some scaled Strat plans I can use as guidelines to size mine.
Anyway, thanks again; I'll be a frequent visitor!
Karl
