Building a guitar

I thought all-rosewood would be much more expensive!

 

That's a pretty good choice there, especially the graphite nut, those last so long

 

If you haven't already made the definite choice of the neck, I can recommend to you 6105 frets. They are taller and slightly narrower than 6150s, and the taller the frets you have the less pressure you have to put on the strings to hold them down and after a while you play more relaxed, faster, cleaner, and plus better vibrato control.

 

It's not that simple in all cases. You have to take into account fretsize and fretboard radius as to how low your action can go and how much pressure you need to put on the strings to depress them.

Having taller frets forces you to develop a lighter touch as to not push the strings out of correct intonation as you play them, so you learn to depress more lightly on the strings. You can have a guitar with a 16 inch radius, which allows an extremely low action, but the fact is you will be able to play faster on a guitar with a 16 inch radius with tall frets than a 16inch radius axe that has small frets, purely because your fingers are touching less wood each time, and this is not really related to the action of the guitar anyway. Ultimately the easiest action would be achieved by the largest radius you can get and easier playability aided by bigger frets.

Just thinking, the 50's style deep V one piece Strat neck can hardly be called normal !  I think it's the best for tone, although you do have to adapt your left hand to suit. It encourages thumb over the top playing. I fitted mine with jumbo frets, and it has a fairly low action. The fretboard radius is a relatively small 7.25 inch, so you will never get a super low shredding action as notes would choke when bending.

To be honest, that classy body needs a classy neck, and I would definitely go with one of the standard neck

options.
