I am going to build a strat here in the next couple of months and I am trying to decide on a body wood.
The guitar will be used in my cover band (REM --> Duran Duran --> INXS --> No Doubt --> Third Eye Blind --> Cake --> Led Zeppelin)
Neck:
-Maple shaft
-Pau Ferro fretboard
-25.5"
Pickups:
-P90's
Bridge:
-Top/flush mounted OFR
Body:
-Will have pickguard
Ash, Alder, Maple?
I want to finish it in a sunburst fashion like below, so that kinda throws mahogany out the window.
I'm mainly looking for what tonal characteristics I should expect from P90's in each wood.
Thanks
