    Ground for Hipshot Hardtail Bridge

    I will have a Hipshot Hardtail Bridge with Strat wiring (rear route). I assume I will need to ground the bottom of the Hipshot to the volume pot. Will there be a ground wire hole to the bridge or will I have to drill?

    My First Warmoth Guitar

    I just ordered everything. I have no idea how long it takes for them to make these. I’m sure it varies by wood and finishing selections. How long does it typically take?

    Roasted Flame Maple Neck—Finish or Not?

    Should I finish my Roasted Flame Maple neck? I see that it’s not necessary but is it bad for wood longterm if it’s not finished. How would unfinished feel compared to a standard maple neck with a satin finish?

    Tiger’s Eye Dye on Quilted Maple?

    Tiger’s Eye Dye on Quilted Maple? Has anyone ever gone with this combination? It looks fabulous to me in the graphic representation. Also can someone recommend a good color for the back to go with this front? The core wood will be Swamp Ash.

    Help with Capacitors

    Vintage Stack Tele (Neck) Classic Stack Plus Strat (Middle) 59 (Bridge) I’m thinking a .047uf on the single coil tone and .022uf on the humbucker. Although the noiseless single coils are probably closer to humbuckers than single coils so should I use .022uf for all 3 pups? What should I put on...

    Push/Push Strat Knobs Wanted

    I’m having trouble finding Push/Push Strat Knobs. Warmoth sells the Push/Push pots but not the knobs as far as I can tell. I’ve checked all the usual places but am still getting nothing. Any recommendations?

    Pots for these 3 Pickups?

    I’m going to do a 5-way Strat wiring setup on my WGD with these pickups: Vintage Stack Tele (Neck) Classic Stack Plus Strat (Middle) 59 (Bridge) I’m thinking the top pot will be a 250K volume for the 2 single coil pups. The middle pot will be a 250K tone for the 2 single coil pups. The...

    Bridge for WGD?

    What type of bridge should I get for this WGD? Vintage Stack Tele (Neck) Classic Stack Plus Strat (Middle) 59 (Bridge) I’m wondering if a Tune-O-Matic will be too high for the single coils and if a Flatmount will be too low for the humbucker.

    HSH Control Layout

    I’m considering a WGD body style with 24 frets and HSH. I was thinking of a Strat control layout with each of the 3 knobs fitted with a 500K Concentric Pot. I thought this would be cool for each pickup to have its own tone and volume. However, with this setup, I don’t think it would be possible...
