    Vegatrem install

    Yeah, screws go in nice and straight without the plate. When I put the plate on without screwing anything down, it’s pretty obvious that the spacing on the plate is too narrow. I emailed vegatrem several days ago and haven’t heard back yet. I wonder if getting a plate for the 6 hole version...

    Vegatrem install

    Yes. There’s a set for the Gotoh sized studs and American sized studs. Only the American sizes fits and we’re installed in the picture.

    Vegatrem install

    The bushing were installed in the picture. It’s like the bridge plate screw spacing is slightly too narrow.

    I did reach out a few days ago but I haven’t heard anything back yet. The studs are standard fender American, which the vegatrem is supposed to fit.

    It is drilled perpendicular. That’s the bridge plate pulling it that way because the hole in the plate does not quite make it to the center of the hole in the body.

    Vegatrem install

    So I had bought a vegatrem to install on a tele/strat hybrid body. I had it routed for an American strat bridge. However, when I went to install the bridge plate, the screws would not go straight in no matter what. It’s like the spacing on the bridge plate is too narrow, even though it’s...

    Draculcaster

    I think it's mainly because my Dad introduced me to the old Lee Hammer films first that he's the one that comes to mind when I think about Dracula lol

    Draculcaster

    My wife gave me some encouragement to finally get my dream guitar this year. I looked high and low for a strat that I really loved and eventually came to the conclusion that for me to have my dream guitar, I'd have to build it myself. I didn't set out to build a strat that looked like this, but...

    Ordered my first guitar from Warmoth last night!

    Not permission per se...I just found it hard to justify paying 1500+ for a guitar. I've never owned a guitar worth more than $500ish. She encouraged me to get it.

    Ordered my first guitar from Warmoth last night!

    Feels good. When my wife gave me the green light to get my dream guitar, I thought what better way to get exactly what I want, than to custom build one through Warmoth. It's a totally blacked out satin Strat, with a bloodwood FB with Skull and crossbones inlays and a Christopher Lee era Dracula...
