Need advice on guitar build

[The Dali]

I wouldn’t use filler. I would add new wood

How good are you with a router? You could route a clean line and glue a small block in there for stability.

Are you worried a Floyd post won't have enough wood there?

Yes, that's exactly my concern.

Not sure I understand. Wont the pick-guard hide that?

I got this Lite Ash Strat a few days ago. I wanted one forever, and got it really cheap knowing there where issues. The neck is in great shape thankfully. The body? Not so much! I love a fight, though

I plan on placing a Floyd Rose, but after hardware and of course finish removal I saw this. Someone took a butter knife to that area for some reason, and I am trying to figure out how to replace that wood and be structurally sound.

Shape a piece of ash and glue, or is there any other product that can fill that in otherwise?

Thank you
