Tingin ko hindi, kasi magkaiba rin ata ang sukat nung bridge mismo ng Fender (USA) compared sa mga import (Squier)..

yup, may konting discrepancy. chances are baka maglipat ka ng ibang screwholes. tapos konting bawas elsewhere.

May exact size kaya yung pickguards for squiers? Or kailangan pa magpacustom?

Hi mga strat bros!

ask lang about strat bridge. Plan ko kasi mag palit (not change but to restore) ng bridge nung '57RI ko na strat, rusted na kasi at ang nakakainis offset yung butas nung trembar at nung trem block, i fear na napalitan nga ito.

ang problem ko now, meron po bang saktong replacement for this type? Japanese Fender '57RI Strat....
Sana meron ano? San kaya makakahanap and the price range for this kaya?

It all depends on your budget actualy..pero having a HSS strat is ok naman eh :) killer nga yun pag ganun pero sa mga vintage correct enthusiast mas gusto nila ung sss lang :)

AMMK!!!

actually it's not a branded one, just assembled, according to my specs. I use it as my main axe for cleans and for overdriven sounds, i use all pickups for a thicker sound. Anyway, that pic is just a grabbed one. Here's the real.



Sorry for a large pic. hehehe

IMO if i'm not a vintage nut i'd definitely go for an HSS strat. you get the great neck and middle position tones plus a thick humbucker sa bridge for lead and overdriven tones.


but then i'm a vintage nut. kaya SSS. hahaha!

Is aztec gold good for a reverse headstock build whatchathink? H?

I'm saving up for a custom kasi eh. And I'm thinking a reverse head will make bending easy with less string past the nut on the high e and b strings.

I owned a N1 before, same reversed headstock. No problem at all plays easy too. However the decal if you would put one seems odd for me. Should also be reversed too??
