prices...
Look up all the parts you want to use...add those numbers together and there you go.

Neck...
A Tele neck will not fit in an unmodified Strat neck pocket. Tele neck heel is square, strat is rounded. Look up Xhefri's 'Strat-o-Telecaster' build in the Stratocaster forum. Should give you an idea of what's involved.

What does everybody think about the Squier Bullet Strat neck and body?
I will be getting new electronics for it but the switch is there,The jack is there, the pickguard is there and I could always drill holes for thing I want to add.But I'd need a new bridge and tuners.PRICE MATTERS!!!! but so does quality.If you think somethig has a good balence TELL ME ABOUT IT!!!!

thanks! :D

is real wood and not plywood.

well if its just a body in hand you can look into the neck pocket, or in the
electronics cavity.

cavity is the word your looking for blondie.
it would only be a pool if somebody spilled their drink down in it.
at that point it would become a "blunt object" as the judge would say.
