Right, sort of like a carve top soloist must look like to a bird. But not as pointy.

Yeah. I think it will look good. Are you thinking a super strat? Or a traditional strat?

Either or. Ideally something that would be equally suited to rear-loaded super strat style or top loaded vintage strat style. Or even laid out with tele pickups...just probably not an actual tele bridge.

Can you find any pics online? I'm trying to visualize without going to the trouble of actually cutting one...

Next question becomes what to do about the edge. Binding, like that Charvel/EVH/Wolf. Or a small roundover like a Tele, or a big round roundover like a Strat?
Actually Mike, if you did this (with maybe a maple top on a light basswood body, routed for two double coils spaced like an axis) I may buy one from you.Randy Van Sykes":3fwze142 said:If you are building from scratch, I would go with the exact tele body shape and just shape the horns in a strat style.
