Well, I don't want to say just yet. I want to reveal all the names of the people at the end of the build.

I'm a yellow nut and looking at the GA logo could you do an orange fade to yellow in the center.

Yes I think I can pull that off. I was also thinking of doing the burst on two sides. So that name of the people will show up on the back better. But I am really wanting the yellow on this build in a bad way.
Do you think the Blue on the P9o stile pickups would look OK or should I flip the covers over and paint them Yellow?

That sketch looks great too man, I'm really glad you decided on the fused Strat Paul!

my guess is that since he says its a 3 piece alder, that it is probably alder. ;D. looks nice, is it a nice flat piece of wood.

Here is a question for you all,
should I make a rear cavity or should I make a pick guard and load everything from the front?
If I make a pick guard I would need some material to make one.
I am leaning toward the rear cavity because of the on board over drive. I still have time to think about it.
But please let me know your thought's.
Thanks!

Looks really good so far Eddie!
I think it depends on the finish if a pickguard will look good. That said what finish do you want to put on it?
BTW everytime I see the headstock I like it more and more!

I am really leaning for the yellow with an orange burst, like the Guitar Attack logo on this web site.
I am going to flip the P90 stile pickup covers over and paint them the same color yellow.
That's my thought's anyway...

I think I won't do a pickguard then. Except if you can make a really special one that fits perfectly to the design of the guitar.
