This body started out light weight and was modified with a “smuggler’s cut” to make the build even lighter. This is a full build now and I do not have a weight for body anymore before having parts added, rest assured, it was the lightest body I could find at the time, and I did not care about paying extra when it was bought. The pickups are all Suhr pickups. The Humbucker is a Pete Thorn “Thornbucker” and the middle and neck pickups are the Suhr V63+ pickups. The wiring is special since there is a “Double Waffer” 5-way switch installed with jumpers and resistors in the correct places to make sure that 250k is going to the singlecoils and that 500k is going to the humbucker ensuring that the best tones are reached for all the pickups. The 5 way switch works as follows.. Position 1 – humbucker. There are no push-pulls, but the humbucker is splitting in position 2 where you would want it to be (easy to navigate and great sounding). Included are the strap locks that go to the strap buttons already installed on the guitar and back cover plate. I included 5 springs on the tremolo in case that is what you were looking for in that way. All hardware (excluding pickguard) has been aged. Neckplate has serial number stamped as well for fun. Note: last 3 pictures show body with neck attached for reference only… This guitar has no more than 4 hours play time on it.

Letting go of this awesome loaded pickguard that I had in my Strat – it’s got a Suhr Thornbucker in the neck and the newer Thornbucker II (53mm spacing) in the bridge. If you’ve ever wanted that sweet Pete Thorn tone without shelling out for the full signature Suhr, this setup got me shockingly close. This will fit standard Fender and Warmoth Strat bodies – heads up, it’s. Compatible with Suhr guitars. I originally built this as a kind of “working man’s Pete Thorn Signature” Strat. It served me incredibly well until I lucked into the real deal, so I’m passing this one along. Honestly, tone-wise, it’s been right in the ballpark at a fraction of the price. Wired up with a 920D Custom 2-humbucker harness, which I actually prefer over the quirky control setup on the official Suhr model. Comes with pickguard screws and output jack, ready to drop in and go. Tone 1: Neck Humbucker. Tone 2: Bridge Humbucker. Feel free to reach out with any questions or if you’d like more pics.
