of all the humbucking strats (fender) i've tried, i like the Highway1 best 8)
 
hmm... since u guys r on the topic of fat strats, what pickups are u guys using?

my "fat strat" details are::
Fender Mexico Strat neck
Aria swimming pool routed body :twisted:
lil59 - stock single coil - custom custom
the two humbuckers are coil tapped by this cool little red switch mikemann installed for me :wink:

all in, still cheaper than a highway one or maybe even a mex strat.

did you get the parts and got mikemann to join them all up for you?
 
haha no. the thing started life as a aria fat strat i got in thailand. fender neck came off luthermusic for 48 bucks, definately a steal, custom custom came foc from my bro. heck, only thing i payed for was the lil59 and the work cost i paid mike to install that one. the fender neck, pickguard, and stuff were installed by my dad and bro, though mike fixed some problems with my tone knobs :D

oh. cause i saw some strat parts, and a manual for building your own strats on ebay. thought mikemann could do it, then i could have a totally customised strat.. looks like i have to stick with the mass produced ones :lol:
 
haha, its possible i suppose, but end up it might cost u too much :( a neck alone of ebay can cost like 200 odd, body 300? lol, havent count in pickups, bridge, etc. total boom liao, pocket chao tah.

tany, here it is. its an unupdated picture, before i put in the little59 in the neck. other than that, no change.


p.s. sry for the poor quality. had to change the photo's file type, else it would be too darn big to upload. :(
 
yup. that neck is the fender neck. the original was an aria neck lor. the guitar started life as an aria strat after all. now the aria neck sits on another strat XD but that isnt a fat strat, so nvm that. anyhow, what pickups do u fatstrat users use?
 
whoa vege, that is sexah! :twisted: er, paid mike 35 to install the SD lil59, fix tone pots, change new double coil tap switch.

$35 for all the above-mentioned jobs: a very good service charge...
