Not interesting, but laid out to my "Rain Man" OCD specs.

Grabbed this off of another forum as a body, neck and bridge. Added tuners, pickup and guard and ended up with this. Sitting in drop B atm:

Did this one up with the help of MJT...Rewind pickups, compensated saddles, Hipshot tuners, in drop C lol:

This one started life as a stock Ibanez RGIB6...yanked the EMGs, tone knob and killswitch, threw in a BKP Warpig, guard, locking tuners:

LTD Strat body, Perle guard, MIM Fender neck, filled the trem cavity w/mahogany and used a Hipshot bridge and Hipshot tuners. This was dubbed the Halloweenocaster for obvious reasons:

I try and do at least one a year, picking up parts as and when I can. They're always fun and I usually end up selling them to friends that dig em.

Holy crap man, those are awesome!!! You and I must have the same DNA when it comes to certain patterns and colors because every single one of those looks like something I'd like. That Halloweencaster is great!

I went for a mix of modern and vintage, mostly modern with a hint of vintage cosmetics ala the sonic blue and vintage Kramer Pacer beak headstock

Roasted Quarter Sawn Maple Neck with Pau Ferro Board, Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets
Light Weight Sonic Blue Alder Body with Contoured Heal
Recessed Original Floyd Rose w/ Fat Brass Block

Duncan Custom Shop Warren Demartini Zebra Set Wound by MJ with 5 way super switch
Gotoh Tuners

I love how the neck turned out. I used the Ernie Ball method of Tru Oil and Wax. I highly recommend the roasted necks. i lover how dark the are and they resonate wonderfully. This put together very nicely and required very little tweaking.

Peavey neck, floyded tele body, 1984 ri floyd. Had to sand neck a little to fit but intonated perfect and plays great. Neck a little wide thin for me but I will adjust

a few from-scratch builds. Too many partsocasters to think about...

This!! Love that man. I would LOVE to have a strat with hipshot fixed bridge. Very nice.

What's the deal with those frets over the edges?
