    Warmoth neck heel markings

    Someone has posted a Warmoth neck for sale locally, but they didn’t post the specs. They did, however, post a semi legible photo of the neck heel as follows: I’m know what everything means except for the handwritten marking in the top, left hand corner. To me, it appears to be “WL”, but I...

    Purple dyed Strat, 18 years later

    My 18 (almost 19) year-old Strat got some much needed TLC today with a shiny, new set of Graph Tech Ratio tuners. The Sperzels I originally installed were already 10 years old when I got them (new Sperzels were out of stock everywhere when I first put this build together), and the action had...

    Pickup routing on Showcase bodies

    Can you no longer have S-S-S Strat bodies from the Showcase routed out for H-S-H configuration? I was perusing the Showcase after a long time away, and noticed it's no longer included in the drop down menus: If so, that's a damned shame. I always order my bodies H-S-H to give me options in...

    Rosewood Thinline Resurrected!

    It's been a hot minute since I've been active on UW (my post history says December 22, 2013) and almost eight years since I first slapped it together, but I think I'm finally happy with my rosewood Tele Thinline.  She's much the same as she once was, except she's now wearing a new, custom-cut...

    Vox AC30C2 $600

    Having no luck on Craigslist, perhaps one of you guys would like it.  I'd like to do a local (NC) deal, but I might ship it to the right forumite (an established member)  if they pay shipping. FS: Vox AC30C2 212 combo amp. I was trying to sell a different amp earlier this year and ended up...

    New Craigslist experience

    So I avoided the scammer from my last thread and finally set up what I thought was a legit deal.  Had a time and place, met the guy, but he conveniently brought less than the agreed upon amount of cash (I'm not talking 5 or 10 dollars, he was $100 short) and wanted to know if I would do the deal...

    How fast would you run away from this? *UPDATE*

    So I've listed my AC30 on Craiglist and gotten a few bites, mostly crap trade offers  or people that don't respond back.  I finally got a promising bite with this email: "Let's make this a deal,get back with your asking price." I emailed them back with a price and got this in response: "Thank...

    Chambered Rosewood Telecaster Body (no longer for sale)

    Some of you may have seen my thread in the Hardware sub-forum.  Basically, I didn't bond with my Telecaster, just can't get used to the control layout or how it hangs on a strap.  I do, however, love the sound, so I'm going to put together a Strat with Telecaster pickups! :headbang: Specs...

    Hardtail Strat/Telecaster bridge compatibility?

    So I tried to like my Telecaster, really I did.  I love the way it sounds, but I just cannot get used to the way it hangs on a strap.  The neck is way out there and just not where it's supposed to be (longtime Strat guy). I also always find myself grabbing at thin air for the volume knob with my...

    Multiple nut widths and back contours on baritone necks

    I can't be the only one.  I want to make one of these: with a baritone neck, but I absolutely hate the standard thin profile (had it on a Warmoth headstock neck).  It's just not big enough to fill up my hand and it physically hurts to play for longer than a song or two (my two current necks...

    New neck on the way

    So I've been spending the last 5 months putzing around with my Telecaster Thinline.  A some of you might remember, I just slapped a MIM Tele neck on it back in April and called it good until the right neck came up in the showcase, well boys (and girls), I think I found the one, this one...

    You know what sucks?

    When you've got a bid in on eBay for something you really want, you're the high bidder with just an hour left and a $30 buffer in your max bid, you are pretty sure you are going to win the item you desire, but you have to go to work.  So you go to work, and all you can think about is the auction...

    Live Cut for demo

    From the Oasis Lounge in Graham, NC.  Tracked live at our gig, mixed at home by our steel/lead player.  I'm the chorused rhythm guitar. http://www.bobsessions.net/mp3/rwb.mp3 Thoughts?  I personally think the lead guitar needs to sit higher in the mix and the 'verb/delay on the vox needs to be...

    It's been too long (Rosewood Thinline content) *NEW PICS ON PAGE 3*

    Been planning a Thinline build for almost a year now, but haven't been able to get it off the ground, when this baby fell into my lap.  It wasn't exactly what I had initially envisioned, but God, is it gorgeous! \ I initially wanted a traditional Telecaster Thinline setup because I liked the...

    My Warmoth Strat, the 3 year update (lots o' pics)

    I had the strings off to re-set her up, and decided to do a mini montage of my #1.  It took two years of saving and almost a year of planning, but just about this time 3 years ago, I finally finished my dream guitar.  Between then and now she's been gigged, recorded, played hard, put up wet, but...

    Warmoth in Action video

    I'm the long haired, hippie freak in left corner. Still don't know the tune 100% (heresy, I know), so there are quite a few clams and more than a bit of gratuitous soloing. This is my purple swamp ash Strat with Rio Grandes.  The tone, albeit it a nice one (IMO anyway), just isn't very country...

    MI Audio Crunchbox

    So I've had mine a while (V2) and really like it through darker amps, but through the Blackface voice I've been using on my Superchamp XD lately, it's just a bit too bright, so I deduced it an optimal time to adjust the internal presence control.  I cracked 'er open and can't for the life of me...
