Re: Blog: Building a Parts Strat
I've been thinking of a parts-caster for years but in the end I decided to go one step further and commission a custom-builder to build be one from scratch.
I honestly couldn't be happier I went this way, and with that guy, Will Stinnett.
Like Jay says, you can't possibly plan enough, I've been planning every little detail for the better part of almost 3 years, thinking and revising everything ans when it came down to it I STILL found that I hadn't thought of everything (in my case it was the type of veneer on the headstock, color combination of hardware and type of jack-plate).
That's where someone more experienced and knowledgeable than you having your back helps immensely.
But now, TBH, the new SDUGF CS run has me kinda itching to go for a new build, just that I can't actually justify it, to my self or my wallet.. :9:
