Thanks everybody. It was a huge effort that took longer than some of the sailboats I have built over the years.
Val, the specs are as follows:
Radius- 10"-16" compound
Fretwire- 0.118 X 0.058 (have huge hands and fingers)
Weight- 8.5 lbs.
The neck shape is approximately like what is called "thin" by manufacturers.
I used push-pull switches for effect regarding classic Strat sound for clean, but that's just a hint toward my son's invention. The 4-way switch is also part of the manipulation. You wouldn't believe how much wiring is stuffed under that rear cover! There are 144 distinct tones, with no pedal at all. Makes you crazy, doesn't it? LOL. I'm wallowing in the success of the finished product- unashamedly proud.
