    ahh, thank you. Then why did Warmoth build 24.75 conversion bodies with two hums? They don't seem to make these anymore as they were rather poor sellers.
    I had a chance to buy one years ago and I passed on it, but.. I do have this Warmoth neck w/ ebony board I've had lying about for close to ten years now that I'd love to get using seeing its a nice compound neck.

      The Warmoth fretboard extension is just a tad over an inch. I agree it looks funny on a normal strat body. But I build a body that is perfect for it. Notice you still have access to the 24th fret due to the contour of the lower horn.



      And in case any of you didn't know I'm accepting orders for necks but they are made right here in the good old USA not China. I can't compete with an $80 neck in price but I can garantee a better product
      Are you doing any 24 fretters?

            I'd be up for a replacement neck if I can get the thicker 540P spec and 24 frets for a RG550.

              They still make it but it's not listed on the website you have to call in and ask a rep for it. The body is also 7/8 the size of a strat and the neck they make to match it is 24 3/4. Check this out and you can see one of the guitars:

                Thanks for that link, though my GAS is now at an all time high... that 24 fret Koa strat is godly.
