I'm working on mine right now.

Maple neck with compound radius and black block inlays (either C-shaped or better V-shaped. I got C-shaped right now, from Warmoth).
Ash body finished in Yellow on black (still black now). This is a alder body just for testing reasons. If I keep it, I'll paint it. If not, I'll get myself an ash body
All black hardware (vintage style bridge, vintage tuners, black jack etc...)
Handpainted pickguard like the one on my black strat I showed you or an entirely black pickguard.
2 x Tonerider Humbuckers (with option for either DiMarzio Breed or Evolution).
3-way switch
toggle switch for coil split
Trem setup flat on body

I'm workin' on it:

There's still some chrome hardware on the pic but I got the others in the meanwhile.

Not sure if this would be my perfect Strat or not, but I've dreamed about owning an all rosewood Strat.

Owned a few including CS and this one is as close as I have ever got to my perfect Strat. Put a Gotoh Wilkinson VS-100N trem on it plus ebony tuner buttons to match the fretboard.
It's a 2008 Deluxe FMT HSS.
