That's one of the reasons I keep playing it Bry, it sounds just great, really ringing and resonant. Probably a lot of luck involved in a way, but it's just a corker of a guitar for some reason, which makes me very happy!

Beautiful pics of a beautiful looking guitar. The extensive research and thoroughness and dedication in the building process probably helped a lot too!
You're very kind! I did take a bit of trouble over the build, and do like to think it played some part...  However, looking at the guitar now, it is clear to me that I had a great bit of wood for the body - possibly the one-piece body advice that you gave has some importance here, and also the neck (which I chose purely because of the specs re fingerboard material/radius, number of frets etc.) is also a nice piece of wood, and very well made too - I wonder if the bone nut is more of a help than I might have imagined also. But the combination of the two just works in the end. Hope I can manage something similar with the strat build!
