    Custom wood knobs

    I think you made the right move! I have purchased several sets of knobs from that vendor, but they were already made and posted on his website.  He claims he makes custom knobs, so I emailed him with my request and never got a reply.  I then emailed him again, and again, and again without any...

    Cool...  Glad you like it.  Here is the build thread if you need to see any more pics! http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=26213.0 I don't think it would be fair to quote you the price, mostly because I honestly don't remember.  But also, I supplied the material for the top...

    Online luthiers

    There are a bunch of them out there, but one that I have used successfully for a couple builds is Attila Custom Guitars.  The last build he did for me was this copy of a Frank Zappa Guitar He can be found here on Face Book https://www.facebook.com/Attila-Custom-Guitars-166507160027520/ As...

    HELP with Pearly Gates Trembucker

    Yea, that’s the same as I thought!  Some of what I am reading indicates that a tremmbucker is slightly wider than the f-spaced pickup and both are wider than a Humbucker.  Just not sure if the size difference between the trembucker and f-space is enough to make a difference.  I might be better...

    HELP with Pearly Gates Trembucker

    Want to see if anybody can give me some details about the Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates Trembucker pickup. I want to replace the bridge pickup on a Duo Sonic build with the Pearly Gates Trembucker.  Trying to pick it up at The STRATosphere while they are having the black Friday sale.  Here is...

    Broken Button ?

    Funny, but I am still running Firefox and over the past 30 minutes my NoScript has been kinda sorta trying to kick back in.  I had the drop down NoScripts button at the top of the page, but not the bottom NoScripts button.  Then it just went away totally again.  I read on the NoScripts homepage...

    Broken Button ?

    Yea, I’ve used Firefox for the past decade, but it does seem to be a PIA at times lately.  It also screws up the printing I need to do from various websites for work.  Never tried Opera but it seems like a good time to give it a try... Thanks  :icon_thumright:

    Broken Button ?

    Yea, that new and improved Firefox has not been treating me too well either.  My NoScript does not work with it.  I hated working with the NoScript when I first started using it and now I don’t want to be online without it.  Anybody else having that problem with Firefox and NoScript or maybe...

    RIP Fats

    Fats could definitely rock those ivories  :headbang1: I was lucky enough to see him play about 30 years ago.  He was the headline billing with Jerry Lee Lewis scheduled to be the opening act.  Apparently Jerry Lee did not like being the opening act and refused to come on stage.  This stalled the...

    matching headstock

    Very cool... I am a big burst fan and the headstock done with a matching burst is a great combo!!! Be sure to post some pics when you get that girl in your hands. :headbang:

    matching headstock

    Yes, they will do that, however there is a small fee.  Well worth it in my opinion. The only catch is you have to have the neck headstock finished at the same time you finish the body.  So, you can't buy a body now and have the headstock matched further on down the road. Good luck &  :rock-on:

    Nice new tele neck.. but

    I have never had a nut installed by Warmoth on any of my necks after my first build. I figure why mess around with that when I still need to have my tech fine tune the nut :dontknow: Besides that, I really like a good old fashion bone nut the best...
