I know how much you guys love pictures of pretty guitars, so here's my brand new Warmoth...finished rather unproffessionally by me. The lacquer job isn't perfect, but I'm confident that with proper equipment I could do a much better job. I'm happy as it is.
Alnico II Pro in the neck, Lace Sensor Gold in the middle, Custom Custom in the bridge. Rosewood neck with an ebony board, body is mahagony with a flame maple cap. I'm loving the CC, but the A2P is just a little harsh with the ebony fretboard. Might have to check out some Swinesheads in the future.
Definitely Warmoth is the way to go if you want a guitar that is perfectly dialed in for you. Some big and expensive brands use their parts, such as Pensa Shur (they have used or still use Warmoth necks).
Did you have to have any fret work done? Did you try the stainless steel frets? I have s/s frets on my Warmoth baritone.
Very nice man. I like it alot.
Wow, what did you use to mount the single coil in the middle? It looks like a single coil mounting ring or something, I've never seen one of those before.
Very nice, this is inspiring me to put together a warmoth even more! As if my GAS wasn't bad enough already...
NICE very nice
sweeet
Looks great! I think you did a pretty good job of the finish. Is this your first one?
wow thats an awesome axe.
It must play really good!
makes me want to get a warmoth too.
So what was the damage?
Thanks all!
BoomBoomChild: No stainless steel frets for me, the ebony board is sharp sounding enough as it is. I plan on getting fret and nutwork done as soon as the wiring is all squared away.
TwofacePimp: I got that from stewmac after looking everywhere for something similar. I wish it wasn't so bulky, but it's better than having all that empty space in the route.
ratherdashing: This is my first one, but my second stab at it.
Frantic Rock: Haven't given it much of a setup yet, but I can already tell it's a keeper. Sounds absolutely phenomenal unplugged.
Had I gotten everything right the first time, this probably would have set me back about $1200 at most. Because I experimented a bit with hardware, pickups, and finishing, it was a bit more than that. A lot of the cost has to do with the dark chocolate brown piece of rosewood they used for the neck. Which reminds me, I didn't give you guys a good shot of the back.
That's in bad light and the flash makes the lacquer look terrible, but it's the best I have for now.
One of the things I'm really proud of is the way I sunk the neck screws. You can run your hand over the back of the heel and not feel anything.
Very nice, great job!
Awesome!
Looks wicked man, gorgeous colour.
Nice job. Is that the Gotoh 510 bridge that they sell?
Thanks!
Yes, that's the Gotoh 510. I have mixed emotions about it. On one hand, it's well made, sturdy, and transfers vibrations to the body extremely well. On the other hand, the string spacing is just a tad wider than I'd like. Also, the saddles are at a 12quot; radius and apparently use some sort of clamp system that scares the living crap out of anyone you ask to replace them or put shims under them.
Kyuss Rock: Thanks, it was inspired by the Ibanez RGA321.
B-E-A-utiful.
Since im doing my first project right now I have a bunch of questions for you......
Is the wood painted or stained?
Where did you buy from?
How did you treat the wood after you stained it?
Looks pretty sweet man. I love the color. Great work.
I love it!! I have always wanted a blue guitar!!

The saddles aren't that bad. Granted, they're aren't a joy to remove, as they use the same C-clips as TonePros:
from : localhost/for changing the radius, I used a nut file to *slighlty* deepen the slots of the middle saddles. That solve the problem.
big bridge looks cool.
looks like a new ibanez bridge on RGA models.
