Blocking a Strat tremolo cavity

Post by Fran »

Being a lazy Carpenter i wondered who supplies them Strat tremolo cavity infill pieces? I remember someone posting a link up a while ago but i cant seem to find anything on allparts or axesrus.
I want to go the route of a Wrapover so i want to do a proper job on this. Thanks.

Thanks for that, I've been thinking of making something like that for a while. It could also be useful for Jagmaster owners wanting to do custom jobs.

Using it on a Jagmaster may require you to route out the cavity for an american sized block first anyway... though on most squiers i've encountered there's enough clearance to install an american block so may not be an issue.
