I am looking at the Soloist body for sale in the Screamin Deals. Does anyone have any wiring diuagrams for a SSH Soloist, and/or any suggestions on how to approach this? Also, if someone has a link to a site that might have a pre-wired wiring harness that would fit a soloist with 1V,2T's, that...

My Warmoth Tele build (built in fall of 2022) with a maple neck and fretboard has the following issue: The strings are noticeably closer to the fretboard near the headstock than they are closer to the body. Do you think this is a truss adjustment, or do I need to do some adjustment of the...

I have a Warmoth Thinline Tele build that I had a third party wire for me. I am unhappy with what they did and want to re-wire myself. It is a rear rout with two Fralin Modern PAF Humbuckers, and Strat controls. The person who built it made it with two volume pots, and one master tone pot. I am...

I have a one year old Blues Jr. 4 which I rarely use. I tried it last week and it is broken. First it won't make any sound, even though the Red "On" indicator is on. I turn it on and off several times, and sometimes it will eventually make sound. Even then it will cut in and out at varying time...

I had decided on the Kemper Stage. But for reasons I don't want to discuss here it didn't work out. I tried to purchase it but to me it seems as though their USA presence is not well organized and the support just wasn't there for me. I am now looking at the FM3 or the FM9. I am on the Waitlist...

I am interested in buying a Modeler as a means of expanding my possible combinations/permutations of sound. I don't gig, just play at home, but might also informally play with others at times. I have been reading the threads here on the Fractal and Kemper, and saw mention of the Headrush. I am...

I know that Warmoth rear rout bodies need long shaft pots. My question here is whether this is the case for all rear rout bodies? Basically, is it a generally accepted standard that if you have a rear rout body you need long shaft pots?

For my Warmoth "Strat" I found a nice Made in the USA case by TKL which is no longer available. For my new Warmoth "Tele" I need a case and am having trouble finding something. I am looking for a good quality case (soft or hard shell) not made in China. Any suggestions would be appreciated? I...

I am about to start building the wiring harness for my Tele build, which has rear rout and strat controls (1V/2T/3 Way Switch). I loosely measured on a thin "board" where the controls go but am not sure how to cut the slot for the the switch. Does anyone know how to do this, or can anyone chime...

Has anyone here done a Tele build with rear rout? I am looking into CTS pots (if I can find them in stock!). I don't know if I need long or short shaft pots. I am afraid that if I get Long they might be too long and then I imagine the knobs would be elevated off of the body of the guitar. But...

While waiting for my Warmoth Tele body build with 2 humbucker rout, strat contols (1 Vol, 2 Tone), fixed bridge, and rear rout, I am looking into what I need to start now on the wiring. I prefer to learn how to do this myself and have been doing a lot of reading/research. What I want is this...

I keep going back and forth on unfinished vs. finished and since I can't find a finished option I like, I keep coming back to finishing myself. My question(s) are: (1) Since it is winter and I keep my house relatively cold, around 66 F, is this too cold for applying the Tru Oil? (2) How toxic...

I am working on an order for a Thinline Tele with Roasted Swamp Ash Body and Lam Top (also considering Black Korina, but that is another story). I don't plan on using a pickguard. After the learning issues I have had with my current Warmoth Strat build tremolo, I am looking for a hardtail bridge...

Not sure if it is just me, or a site issue. I have tried 5 different browsers and on all of them it lets me login successfully but says "thank you for registering" and when I try to look at my account it shows me not logged in. I created another account to see if it was a problem with my account...

Apologies if this has been asked before. I searched the forum and couldn't find anything. I am thinking of doing a LP type build, either Regal or VIP body, not sure yet. My question is on Humbucker pickups. Has anyone here use Humbuckers from Gibson? Are they "good" or considered good options...

Just installed strap buttons for the first time. The heel one seems fine, well centered. Given that my neck was already on, I didn't follow Aaron's instructions to do the horn one without the neck on. Drilling/Screwing went fine, but I messed up and it is noticeably off center. Any thoughts on...

Two quick questions: (1) I didn't see the instructions not to adjust the side adjustment while strings were in tune. Should I worry about that? (2) My string action is closer to the frets near the head and a bit further away near the body, is that a problem. There isn't any buzz but I am new to...

I am just starting my strat build and as a first step trying to install the tremolo. I put the tremolo into the front of the body and pushed the two "notches' flush with the two studs. When I do this if you hold the body up and look towards the heel of the body the tremolo is flush with the...
