totally cool project man - bet it will look and feel great once you're done!

thanks for the comments guys - I appreciate the feedback!  There are so many cool guitars people put together here that I feel inspired to make my next guitar a warmoth as well. and yeah - I was staring at it a bit when it first came together .... but the more I play on it, the better it...

I have to say I would jump on a second build if the option to slant the neck pickup was a choice - I've always liked the way the Robin Medley's with just 2 pickups look (not a fan of the V headstock mind you... ) It might be unrealistic to have more slanting options for the middle and neck...

I had an earvana nut put on the neck I just received and it does make a difference - if it's any help, I'd recommend it!

gawd what a pretty top on that tele!  I can see why you'd have to jump at it when you saw it,,,

That is frikin cool - 12 strings call once you play them .... and with rosewood... ouch!

it's a beautiful axe there man - do you use it for all styles of playing or more focused styles?

you know not to borrow what's been said... but WOW was exactly what I said when I looked at this one too! Rick is pretty tough on their trademarks - I don't know that they could claim a shape for the cut out though... 

Groovy tele there - I'll bet that thing has a big sound that kills!

Sweet looking axe there man - and super cool to go somewhat unconventional.... to me that's so much the allure of building a custom guitar!

the splat is damn cool - never quite had the guts to do one myself, but the good tops seem to really look great (like this one). the soloist bodies do seem to be a little less utilized than I would expect -  it seems there are way more traditional strat and tele aficionados building with...

@ NexRex - Not quite, but it was inspired by their experiment. I didn't totally care for the brown they had on the edges of the top on the burst, so I just went with the Jungle Burst top with the clear binding, and then had the back done in a transparent brown.   The color option wasn't...

thanks - and yeah that top continues to kill me when I look at it - I'd never heard of a wild maple figure (probably just means the wood was ultra deformed or something lol... but it looks cool!) I have to say using their strat builder (it doesn't work for the soloist body type at this point) I...

Really dig this - it's inspirational man :occasion14:

I am loving this axe!  it's my first Warmoth guitar - but not likely my last... super versatile tone (amazing clean to heavy rock)
