Well i am currently addcited to the twang and woody tone of a strat. Been thinking of getting a strat. I am eyeing this beauty here from Fender Japan
http://www.fenderjapan.co.jp/fender/2007fender/strat/st5793tx.htm
But the thing is i prefer to get a cheaper strat wif descend alder body or may ash. As mainly if i get the Fender axe i will keep just the body bridge system and tuners. I will upgrade the electronics and then pups will be a bKP of course and i will custom make a neck to be that of a chunky Jeff beck neck profile.
So considering my plan for a strat i think its better to custom-make 1. So instead of USACG and Warmoth. Can you guys recommend me where i can get nice strat ash body and maple neck at a better price :lol:

Ash seems to be well though of in strats.. I found my Ash strat with Ebony board very bright and snappy.. I'd be tempted to advise you to get an Alder Strat if possible

A look at www.axesrus.com could give you some fairly cheap stuff.

Be warned, a lot of their stuff is shockingly shite - scratchplates don't match up sometimes, bad cut backplates and so on.

i got some *awful* witch hat knobs from them. on the other hand, they are very efficient, and the rest of my order was top quality. "be warned" about sums it up.
