Ohsyrus,
Warmoth does carry 7.25 radius necks in their total vintage
necks for the strat which is what I would use. Here's the link

Er,Ah---I stand corrected. That was a mistatement on my part--I meant
to say that they don't have a compound radius that starts at 7.25--I
think their compound radius is fixed at 10--16. USA Custom can do
that as well as 7.25 to 9.5 or any straight radius you ask for. I
prefer the 7.25--9.5 radius, myself, over the straight 7.25 jobs--and
don't care for 10--16 at all. YMMV.
