Let me know what he says as the GGG I see only has on bride humbucker and slanted. I think you can add any additional routes you want as well. H S baby, best config.

I'd say most builds for us outside of a striped 78 eruption strat are prob gonna run close to 800 once said and done. I mean, cheaper than spending 2K on a sig model of some type.
