Purchased about a week ago and they finally arrived. Always wanted a Strat with an Evertune without having to fill that little gap by the bridge due to trem. Had no idea this model had a hard tail, was pleasantly surprised when this popped up in my reverb feed. The Ibanez was a bonus, the seller had also modded the Ibanez so I picked up both. So pumped!
This one has been my absolute favorite 6 string guitar that I've ever had in my life (aside from lack of Evertune) So Instead of just buying a different regular 6 string with one, I figured I should keep using my favorite 6 string guitar and just add one to it. I was honestly insanely scared that i/they were going to end up ruining my favorite ($1500) guitar. But they really didn't a better job than I could've ever even imagined. It looks like it came with it stock. Thank you Evertune and thank you Lee!!!!!
Hello everyone!
Taking the plunge for my birthday and going with an Evertune bridge guitar
Doing it as a custom build though
Major inspiration taken from the Jim Root signature Strat with lots of my own preferences included
Fender Advanced Strat HSS as the ‘donor’ guitar
Evertune bridge
Fishman Fluence Modern pickups
Stainless frets
JR pick guard and single volume knob
Custom inlays
With the inlays.. I’ve decided to go with blocks.. a bit different from regular Fender necks (although they have done them in the past)
Genuinely can’t decide if I want to bind the fretboard or not.. I like both!
I’ve put some AI mock-up images on - appreciate things may not be exact but gives an idea
Let me know what you think guys? Binding or no binding?
Appreciate it’s not to everyone’s taste but thats why guitars are so interesting!
I’ll post pictures of the finished article in the next few weeks.. just waiting for the pickups then it’s off to the luthier for the work
