Around January, I bought a custom "Swamp Ash" Stratocaster type guitar body routed to use a Telecaster bridge and pickup. After finishing it, I decided to attempt a 'from-scratch' build. I started out using a pine 2x8, but the body wasn't thick enough for the bridge I wanted to use. So I added a walnut cap to the top. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, but feel free to ask any questions you may come up with, and I'll do my best to answer.

Nice work...
Every time I see stuff like this I think... I really need to get a CNC table.. I know you didn't use one, but I would have to

What's the neck on the custom build?
