Brand new unfinished Stratocaster style body. HSH routing will take a variety of pickup combinations. Standard strat routing for tremolo bridge, control cavity and jack socket. Photo is of the actual body for sale here. Grain is nice enough for a stain and varnish or lacquer finish. If you need a neck, see our other listings - our strat necks fit well. We have many other components required to finish the guitar too.

Paulownia is an increasingly popular tonewood. Even Fender are using it (check out their Empress Tele, empress wood is paulownia). It is an incredibly light and resonant hardwood. These bodies come in around 2 to 2.3 pounds, making a complete guitar of under 7 pounds possible - no more aching back and shoulders after that 2 hour gig or jam session! We've built a few paulownia body guitars now with very good results. We've sold a lot of these bodies now, with great feedback and repeat business.

Please note that these do not come with instructions. If you are going to build or modify an electric guitar, you need reasonable DIY skills and a good knowledge of how guitars are put together. There is lots of info on the internet and we are happy to provide advice if needed. Check our other listings for necks, tuners, pickups and other guitar parts, plus strings, picks tuners, etc.

Happy to combine shipping where possible.
