Thanks for introducing me to those pickups. My Eart ST style will be perfect when I install them.

Hope they work out for ya!

Okay. From some of your replies in the comments, I get it. You used an old neck and body you had lying around and from there, you bought (on the cheap) some good parts from Amazon. Awesome! You put new life into that lifeless guitar and for inexpensive options and the overall sound surprised me. Very nice! Great playing. 😎👊 🎸

Thank you!

So, did you buy a squire on Amazon and take it apart and put it back together??

No, that neck was off an ‘82 Squier. The body was a blank strat body I had laying around and the rest was purchased off of Amazon

you should use some copper around the body inside the pickups for less frequency of the pickups

Great tip! & definitely works well. To my surprise, this setup was relatively quiet as far as a strat can be

You went to all this trouble, and you went sunburst? It is a nice color though.

Great explanation and the sound of the guitar was great :) P.s The riff in the beginning at 0:14 sounds super familiar, where is it from?

Thanks!! That was ‘Lenny’ by SRV

It’s a Squire

How much did this all cost you? Sounds great....the neck is $100+ for a generic one. Guessing $300 total?

You could get away with building one for that, I had the body and neck laying around already. (The neck is an ‘82 squier neck) but there’s some deals for both on there that are budget friendly for a project like this. The most expensive thing for me were the pickups at $70

It sounds good, but you didn't tell us what pickups you purchased.

Thanks for mentioning! They are linked in the description now.

You went through this whole spiel about buying parts on Amazon and then all you did was show how to put the guitar together. ? Why did you even mention where you got the parts? It had absolutely NOTHING to do with the video.

The links to all the parts used are in the description. Not sure what else you want from the dude. Would you prefer a 20 minute video of him clicking around on Amazon adding parts to his cart?

@@dboone7670me personally my only complaint is that he just used a Squier, I thought he was going to go full partscaster from Amazon, but that’s not that large of an issue, video titles can be changed.
