This guitar is a hybrid that incorporates the body style of a Les Paul with what I call the guts of Stratocaster. A great deal of time and effort went into making this and I'm glad I finally have the chance to share it.
It features a stratocaster neck, springs, bridge, input jack, and more, all of which were parts raided from a cheap First Act guitar I found on Craigslist.
The pick guard which came with all the electronics and pickups prewired and built-inn came from an awesome kit sold at stewmac
The end product sounded exactly to me like my squire which I think is pretty cool.
One really important thing to note that you'll see in the instructions is that the files are slightly off in their design. The little circle shape at the bottom of the cut-out where the back of the pick guard fits into isn't near big enough as a I ended up grinding it out a lot with a dremel to make things fit. For this same reason there are no holes for the pick guard. To sum it up this thing takes a great deal of handiwork to construct. If someone feels inclined to modify and update the files feel free. Or if people seem interested in a fix I may eventually fix it myself.
Also the ingredients/directions will be a bit general because: 1) I heavily relied on the advice of local guitarist since I myself know very little. 2) I was building the guitar as a birthday present and sort of learned most of the stuff I know from building it.
I've been meaning to share this design awhile…
