    Jaguar 3 switch plate on a Stratocaster, would need the route in the body and put a hole in the pickguard about the same placement as on a Jaguar. Having this over the traditional 5 way blade would solve the problem of getting bridge + neck without some crazy control system or sacrificing...

    Ginger, the thinline 12 string tele, the body has been loaded

    I tried to come up with a witty remark, but due to a lack of anything good I went ahead and finished the old new girl off. Still needs the electronics redone, nut cut in, and the setup zeroed in. Amazingly when I put it all together most everything was about where it should have been without...

    Ginger, the thinline 12 string tele, the body has been loaded

    This is a continuation of this thread: http://unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=24919.0 After a month of sitting on a pile of parts and never finding the time to take them to my tech I finally found the motivation to go ahead and do most of the work myself. I had the tuners installed by...

    Around the world in 80 days

    That is very nice, definitely worth the wait. Just make sure those tequila sunrises in honor of the finish are after the assembly.  :occasion14:

    12 string thinline tele

    I'm back with updates. Strings are in, but I'm still waiting on pickups. If anyone was wondering I'm using a set of Bill "Wilde" Lawrence L500 R/C. In case the R in the bridge proves to be problematic I also have a L500 L/C set included in my order with hopes that I have the L/C set leftover...

    12 string thinline tele

    Remember that's 14 weeks including holidays and the time to get from them to me though UPS ground. Site quotes 8-10 weeks from start(which I am assuming for me was in January) to shipment. It took a full week for it to arrive from the west coast to here in the east, and all in all I could say...

    12 string thinline tele

    I couldn't resist, I had to take more photos of the fretboard. I have to say I am surprised how visually awesome the canary fretboard is while everything else is more or less what I was expecting. Sorry only half are cropped, photobucket fails for editing and I'm too lazy.

    12 string thinline tele

    Ordered December 24th so minus some time for Christmas/New Years, arrived today April 2nd. I counted 14 weeks, but I know good things take time and they did a wonderful job.

    12 string thinline tele

    When guitar companies don't make what you want, then sometimes you just have to jump into the deep end and do it yourself. Her name will be Ginger. I'm still waiting on strings and pickups, both back ordered, so if anyone wants more pictures of anything before assembly I should be able to...
