Conversion neck, that means I could just buy one of those bitches and slap the neck on a hacked up Peavey body that I have instead and have it be a shortscale??

Depending on the bridge, yes it should work. conversion necks usually take a bit of adjusting, but with a some travel in the saddles it should work.

Cool. I need to email them and ask if they can sell the non-pink one outside of that package deal. I don't want that pink headstock. The Peavey was a strat copy so it ought to go right on.

You can get them for Â£285 including shipping, DV247 for example.

DIBS! Also on your JS if you ever decide to sell that as well.

Dibs duly noted.

Similar to louis, I use an Vista Jagmaster with the strap button behind the neck and have no problems with it. I get by without going up too high on the fretboard, and there isn't really too much neck dive with the button behind the neck. I paid Â£150ish (it's white) a few years ago, and they can be had for under Â£250 relatively often on eBay.

Supersonic's a more obvious choice.

Fuck fuckity I want that. In left hand version so I can be tiny handed metrosexual white Hendrix. I really fucking would if the shipping to UK weren't more than the cost of the guitar.

they don't have those headstocks anymore, and they're not matching. actually, they don't even offer that color in LH, now.

here's their LH shortscale strat options:
