      Awesome guitar btw... I never knew that the Eric Johnson neck had that kind of truss rod. Never seen a close up of it.
      No - I bought the pickups from Sigler music and the pots, etc. from Musician's Friend. I cut the pickguard and made my own bracket with a press. The neck is fantastic - I just don't play the strat much.

          Wow that's nice! I love black strats. If you don't mind me suggesting, you might want to consider re-wording "Fender Custom Strat" because it might sound equivocated. I kind of got that impression when I first read the title. Are you willing to sell the guitar without the pickups and pick guard assembly?
