The body is the same as an original 55 fender stringmaster. All openings are same size and depth.
If you need to replace a old body or have some parts from an old fender they will fit straight on this body. |

Very glad to see this Jimmy, I have actually considered a project like this and these would be a good start instead of trying to do this stuff yourself. Good luck with 'em.

The total length centerline is 34 3/16 inches.
I start with a board 38 inches by 6 inches to cut it on the CNC machine. |

I got a mahogany blank and finished it with clear lacquer. Lollar pups and it turned out great.

That looks great. I prefer the "orphan stringmaster" style single 8 to the Fender Deluxe version as I really like having the volume and tone on the end like that.
The clear lacquer really makes the wood grain stand out too.
Did you wire it with a blend pot? |

Yes I can do the body without the pickup pockets routed. Do you want just the body? Or do you want the kit with all the parts in the kit? |
