    Latest build - Padauk-caster

    Inspired by my Padauk N4 that looked beatiful but sounded like an icepick combined with another more painful icepick...



    Warmoth padauk body (beeswax)
    Warmoth "Pro" padauk and slab brazillian rosewood neck (10"-16" compound radius, mother of pearl inlay, 22 SS6115 jumbo stainless frets, beeswax)
    Lollar P-90 creme pickups (bridge and neck)
    CTS 300K pots
    Gold hardware
    Vintage hardtail bridge

    Ah man, a Strat with P90's is awesome. I built one here a few months ago and I can't put it down.

    Love it that's fantastic. The tones have got to be killer. One of my main stage axes is a Wilson Bros. VM65 that is essentially a strat (strat style tremolo) with P-90s.
