Swirled HSS Hardtail guitar body -fits Fender Strat Stratocaster necks J1276

Up for auction is a precision CNCd, replacement or project stratocaster guitar body. This guitar has a unique, multicolor swirl paint job. To protect the paint during handling, this body has a sealer coat of automotive urethane clear. Due to the nature of the painting process, and the basic sealer coat, there is texture to the finish. Additional work will be needed if you require a perfect, show-room finish.   Clear coating services are available if you require a perfect finish and do not have the resources to complete it yourself (please message for details).   If you are on a budget and are willing to accept an imperfect finish, the body can be assembled as-is and still have the artwork protected.

Body Wood................  Poplar

Bridge Compatibility.... Gotoh Strat Hardtail Bridge - String through body configuration.  Stewmac part #0179.  No other bridge will fit without modifications to the body.

Pick Up Configuration.. Hum, Single, Single - This particular body is designed to have the pickups mounted from the back side of the body.  No pickguard or mounting rings are needed!

Output Jack.................. 7/8" Side mount style output jack

Neck Pocket................Standard, 2 3/16" width (nominal dimensions), 6 string Fender Strat specs. (compatible with Strat style 21/22 fret, 25.5" scale necks.  ).  Please note that to ensure you have a snug fit with your neck and to ensure plenty of adjustment space for height setup parameters, we purposely cut our neck pockets to the tight and shallow side of tolerance, meaning if you have a neck  in the middle to wide side of heel width tolerance, simple neck pocket adjustments may be required.   This is a feature to ensure an optimized fit of your neck.  We aim for .60-.62" pocket depth (if you need the pocket deeper, we will need to have a discussion before you purchase the body).  The exact pocket width is displayed in the item pictures.  We publish these dimensions so there are no surprises when you receive the body.  If none of this makes sense, or you do not have the resources to do simple neck pocket modifications, you should consult with a qualified and competent technician before attempting to assemble your own guitar.

Includes complimentary cavity covers (either clear or matte black).  The body will default ship with  clear covers.  If you would prefer  black covers, you must message us immediately after ordering.  If we do not get a message that you would prefer black covers, it will ship with  clear covers.
