<< How To Select The Right Strat Neck Fitting a Strat Neck to a Tele Body >>
If you were given an old Strat Neck, what would you do with it? Well if your anything like the dude in this video you’ll use it as a trigger to a building a guitar in your basement.
The Strat neck was combined with a custom shaped body made out of a block of cherry to make a unique (& rather desirable) franken-tele-strat. Although he doesn’t say how long it took him, I would guess that shaping and sanding the body would be the most labour intensive task in the build – but if you ask me, the more time you put in, the more satisfying the rewards are when you get it right.
