Would go for a 60’s pickguard myself. Mint green might look cool
Was trying to stay accurate to 50s on the body but I do wish I has a 64 mint guard.
The gold anodized pickguard would look the 50s part perfectly.
No worries about not going 100% authentic or "time-correct" on the rebuild. I really dig the idea of the modded electronics, because from an artistical view, it is crucial to unblock your performance as good as possible. If that means to get rid of the limitations of a vintage wiring, go for it. You are not pulling apart an all original instrument, nothing will be lost compared to the point where this project started. You are the performer and this will be your custom tool. I have barely seen anyone has such a sensitive and caring approach to those old parts and guitars, please go on exactly like you do and keep following your intuition.
Thank you very much👍🏻
I’ve never liked the big headstock look but if you don’t have that hang up and if you intend this guitar to be your personal player I suggest you pick the neck that feels and performs best to you - and not care what anyone on youtube thinks... present company excepted of course. :)
I don't see this one surpassing the 59 sunburst as his no1 guitar
@@BCBBCL I agree. However, this could be a great backup or other option for a different sound.
Right on. I never liked them much either. The 64 neck may be the winner here
Wish I could afford that other neck but you defo made the right choice on the one you picked it looks mint
Hi Matt! Can't wait to hear the final result! That bridge pick-up retains all my attention here, especially with a lightweight 57 hardtail body! 👍
Looking forward to seeing it all together man, I think its gonna be killer.
yes im literally at a point in my life where i need to watch your videos
Can't wait to see this guitar together, should be awesome and so much fun to do!!
absolutely can’t wait to see this thing all put together and i especially can’t wait to see you play it
Amazing. Loved that first neck with the “interesting” story. Excited to see the build and hear that beast rip!
That setup is soooo awesome !!! Can't wait to see it togheder !
Cool project guitar! Can't wait to see & hear the results.
The pre-cbs neck, though rare sized, is probably “human error” at the factory. I know from my time at Gibson, sometimes “non-spec” guitars fall through the cracks. That includes neck shape and size!
Then they are M necks or F necks right?
Maybe so! A rare anomaly.
Musical instrument building and restorations keeps me sane. Been doing it for 60 years. Your project here is a good one. Nice looking electronics.
I'm so excited to see the next video
I'm looking forward to this build.
Love this project, could end up with an amazing sounding instrument. Really looking forward to hearing this.
A cool and interesting build. Can’t wait to hear that bad boy
I can't wait to see how this turns out! I'm watching this while building another Junkcaster with parts from old Squiers, MIM and whatever else I got in my boneyard.
I am stoked for this build!
Matt please go for the small headstock , it looks amazing! And it has an interesting story to it
Love your channel . Keeping it positive all about guitars no BS 🤘🏻. Thanx 👍🏻. Can’t wait till it’s done .
your headed in the right direction .YOUR guitar is an extension of YOUR personality so how ever you do it is great.i like 64 neck and smaller headstocks myself plus I was born in 64
Sounds like a great setup, can't wait to hear it.
Gonna be awesome can't wait to see it finished
Nice! Looking forward to the build video.
My fav guitar player on RUclips! Great vid.
I have a base plate on one of my strats. I think it sounds great.looking forward to hearing this set up.
Very happy for ya Bud!!!
Enjoying your channel buddy , I'm acouple years into the guitar/gear obsession world. Looking forward to this build. Cheers
Man that is gunna be cool! can't wait to hear that bridge/bridge PUP!
Sweet, can't wait to see how this comes together and your thoughts on it! That's one of the beautiful things about Strats, because of the assembly line production they are so easy to just mix up to get the best of what you are looking for
I'm really excited for this. Especially to hear your new custom pickups. Im predicting some hot new tones in the future!
Bud you build it just the way you're planning to I can't wait to hear it and I'm sure your fret job is flawless Rock on
I like the modern/custom electronics aspect of the build. I’m really into this build, personally.
Awesome man, i cant wait to see this come together, i think we'll all be surprised at how heavenly this is gonna sound, tough one on which neck i love em both, gonna look amazing is this,
God bless ya man, 🙏👏👏👏🙏❤from🇬🇧
I love this concept you have going on! As long as you love the result, that's all that's matters. Use whichever neck is easiest to play.
That is going to be so cool. Your going to rock the red ! It's what you want nobody else !
I'm all in on using modern components that replicate the best of the old.
Love this build. I like the idea of the 64 neck paired with that amazing hardtail body. The electronics choices seem right on and I can not wait to hear it!
Really digging the idea of a tele bridge pickup in a strat, can’t wait to hear that
Can't wait to hear it man
Hi Matthew, from what I can tell, you have good instincts about what works best on a given instrument. Follow your gut, first impressions are often correct. The " purist" folks will have a hissy, but you are playing it not them. Love the electronics.
That rear pickup is probably a twang banger , basically a tele bridge pickup and pretty cool match up. Cant wait to hear it .
Love everything you said go for it!!
I am a hard tail guy and big headstock, but the small one is the one.
I'm not rich so I have moded my squire with 59^er pickups and all fender bridge pots switches input.,only have the keys left...thanks for the inspiration. ,also got a fender amp.i thanks to you and man I love the sound of this mod
ooh baby I've been waiting for this video
The 64 neck is the way to go.I love the electronics setup. Best of both worlds.
Damn nice man I'm really looking forward to this finish, gonna look nice
I’ve never been much of a strat guy but I’ve been watching your vids for the last few weeks and I kinda wanna build one.
Im so stoked on this guitar build. Everything sounds cool and interesting. I say use the first neck.
Man, what a cool build
I never caught you on youtube before today! Another Oklahoma musician, Wow! Very cool vintage Fender stuff. Nice work.
I built a 62 strat , all vintage parts and body. Its flippin Awesome ! Then match it with vintage fender tube amp , and stand back !
That is going to be an awesome guitar. Great job man. PEACE!
I can’t wait to see the final results
Can't wait to see this up and running. The colour of that body is killer - wish the pickguard was mint green but hey :)
I vote for the first neck you showed.
I'd love to hear more about the treble bleed you use in your guitars. Love this project as well! Thanks Matt
Mathew what are you waiting on? Cant wait to see and hear the finished project!
Looking vintage with the reliable new guts is smart for what you need. You can always put together a back up pickguard with original parts if you need it for either guitar.
Can't wait to see this project done... 🤟💀🥀
On video it looks like the neck closer to you has a shorter scale, maybe just the perspective but if it isn't it's a jaguar neck. That's 24" scale. Love these old played in strats, if they're worn they are played hence loved.
It sort of looked that way to me too.
He did say he had re-fretted it, so I am assuming he knows what scale it is.
Still though, with the camera angle it did look a bit shorter, just not a whole 1.50" shorter.
sounds like a great idea with that pickup set up, should give you tones similar to a tele
Hey Mathew from Canada.
I am so jealous....great guitars!
Well, I know how this story ends... having just acquired one of these fantastic necks this AM.
Looking forward to the big unveil.
FIRST HELL YEAH!!!! great video cannot wait for the build.
YES! Awesome!
I think you have a perfect plan allready.
ngl this might be my favorite guitar of yours
You asked us the question about which neck to use but it sounds like you have the answer to use the first one. It's unique and would be great in a hard tail guitar. The electronics are cool and make sense to use. Get it built and start making music with it. 👍😀
I’d use the bigger headstock neck. Everything else sound like really good choices to me! Keep on rockin’!!
Leo Fender would be proud of you alot of my older friends and dads worked for him back in the day in Orange County
I really like players guitars and like seeing a instrument that’s been played like they were intended to be. Personally I’d use the 64’ neck but I like wider nut widths but I say use whichever feels best.
Matthew, speaking as both a guitarist and a car guy, I am totally behind your resto-mod. In both worlds it is considered a hangable offense to mess with a survivor in good condition. As the saying goes, they're only original once. What IS acceptable, and even commendable, is to rescue an abandoned orphan that would otherwise just rust/rot away, resurrect it and get it back on the road again. Hat's off.
Awesome build Matt, I was thinking maybe relic the scratch-plate. Hmmm!!! Anyway she'll be totally cool either way!!
Anxious to hear it !! Either neck will do, with a preference for the B-Neck ;-)
64 neck seems like the one and seems your set on it !! Go for it do what best suits you cant wait till see it together and here you play man one day I hope to play like you and build my own Strat like you!! Enjoy man!!!!
Cool project
I was going to ask you what you would do with a 62’ neck. This video pretty much answered my questions.
You should put the same pickup in the bridge, that you put in the neck. That’s the secret to a good vintage sounding strat!
Looked like Bourns pots, I love those! Yeah to repeat it , use the '64 neck if it feels good to you!
Correct George, those are the Bourns Model 82 Vintage Premium Guitar Potentiometer. www.bourns.com/docs/product-datasheets/82.pdf
Very cool to see a "C" width neck - never seen anyone talking about them. Cool!
Very rare. Never seen another.
Great video bro
64’ neck all the way. That’s what’s on my Frankenstrat and I love it. But yours looks even cooler in that it’s a bit bigger.
Awesome! Would love to see a maple board on there, though...
Killer either way.
I am falling in love with the hardtail sound. I prefer the pre-CBS neck. Loved the cool eletronics, specialy the bridge pickup
You should sell some merchandise. I am sure a lot of us would buy some shirts. Love what you do
It’s gonna be great
Too cool brother...
OMG that sunflower mug
Sounds like you got a handle on it Matt I think we all need a treble bleed cricut. I like the first neck you described, hope to see it soon
Matthew
Waiting anxiously
I like your vision on this one. I was dying to see you just lay the guard and the neck on for the look, damn-it...lol.
I have a pickguard being made right now with all duncans...ssl-1 neck, ssl reverse wound middle, and ssl-5 bridge. The ssl-5 bridge in my Gilmour strat is so clear, no shrill highs, and just a beast. Matt...love your content, keep em coming.
sounds like it'll be a great set.
@@MatthewScottmusic Thank you Scott.
Dude!!! That’s sick!!! Definitely put the 64 neck on it, it’s sick! And the tele style bridge pickup with the plate under it is a good call for sure.
Tele plates are bigger, so he would have to mod the cavity if I'm not mistaken
@@gunkanjima3408 Even a small plate will affect the pole piece magnetic fields. Kind of how the Jaguar pickups have the side guides to alter the tone ever so little bit.
Magnetic fields are pretty amazing, even a chamfer/bevel on the individual pole piece magnets change the focus and shape of the magnetic field the strings pass through.
@@hkguitar1984 Good call. Looking forward to how that bridge sounds!
Is the tele style bridge pickup also "sick"?!?
I had a plate under my bridge pickup in a previous strat. It isn’t quite tele, because the plate is still quite a bit smaller than an actual tele bridge. But it worked well. I had the blender mod so I could blend in the neck while on bridge, and vice versa. Could blend in the neck while on bridge/middle for all 3, too.
I would use the one off 64 neck since it is unique and in great shape. I like the idea of using new more reliable electronics. Can’t wait to see how it comes out.
Can't wait to hear that geetar!!!!
Cool idea, go with the unique 1964 neck, Bridge pickup looks like an interesting idea, certainly worth the try. You gotta let us know what pots those are. I'll read through the comments, maybe somebody has already identified them.
Mixing and matching components is always fun, you never really know what you might end up with, sometimes great, sometimes magic and many times just the first of many combinations that become a work in progress.
Good Luck, can't wait to hear those pots and Tele style bridge pickup.
Don't forget to relic the screws. Interesting hot rod custom set up. All depends on how it sounds to you...
Matthew, thanks for sharing.
I don't have much technical knowledge, but I do prefer the neck with a smaller headstock.
Very much looking forward to the build. Good luck as always.
PEACE 😀🎸
