    Jeez , what is it lately?

    'Tanks for the info. I'm on a Mac using Safari (and Firefox occassionally). I have "pop-ups" disabled and I don't game or fart around with animated crap (like those stupid ecards and stuff like that).  I also "reset" safari on a fairly regular basis. My current ISP is actually pretty good...

    Jeez , what is it lately?

    Sorry about that John...wasn't thinking I guess....well, I certainly wasn't thinking that someone might pester you with emails, but TroubledTreble is right, so my apologies for that. (POST EDITED) More than anything else, I am just sick of the "Shell Game" that so many corporations play these...

    Jeez , what is it lately?

    Wow,  not sure why you are so defensive? This is "general discussion" and there is no "warmoth.com" or "site issues" forum, so I thought this forum was as close as I could get. I think I expressed a legit concern, and I wasn't  trying to ruffle any feathers, just looking for an explanation...

    New body design with pics - "Teloist"

    Thanks guys! More than anything else, I am just so happy that this idea has "struck a chord" with you guys the way it does me. It almost seems like it was a natural evolution that was somehow "overlooked" by the Universe doesn't it? Weird... Anyway, regardless of who proposed the idea, I am so...

    Regarding ANY attenuators ~ CB - "They all kill tone." WMLHOP - "Any attenuator is going to suck tone." Top shelf advice - be advised and proceed with extreme caution.

    New body design with pics - "Teloist"

    Larry you silwee wabbit!!! ??? It dawned on me that I really should have shown a side-by-side comparision of the Tele and Teloist together. Undoubtedly someone will say "I like the Tele better". I like Tele's too, just not as much. To each his own, but what do you think? Here it is...

    New body design with pics - "Teloist"

    Alfang and kboman - thanks for taking the time and effort! The Soloist did come about due to Eddie making the 1 humbucker strat so popular. A few years after he came out with it, Charvel began making and selling them by the boat load, mostly without pickguards. As these "new" Charvels became...

    New body design with pics - "Teloist"

    I forgot to mention that with a revision to an older body style, comes not only the tendancy for rear routing (no pickguard) as well as new locations for electronics, (and of course a rear humbucking pickup!) but also the "freedom" to add a trem unit without worry over "purist" issues. To be...

    New body design with pics - "Teloist"

    Hi guys, I've been doing some thinking lately, and I have "discovered" that there is something missing from the Warmoth line-up (tongue-in-cheek). I'm more into modern designs based on old favorites. I think of them as "updated" or "revised" versions based not so much on trends as they are on...

    My Warmoth - should I "stratify" my strat?

    On the other hand there is something else you could try - just use a 250K vol pot. A lot of people like the Seymour Duncan JB, but what most of them do not know, is that this humbucking pickup was designed to be used with a 250K vol pot.  That's right, most people have never actually heard a JB...

    My Warmoth - should I "stratify" my strat?

    Yes exactly. As I said, passive single coil pu's normally use a 250K volume pot (and tone pots as well) so if you hook a 500K pot to a single coil pickup, the single coil will have more highend and more output. To my ears, single coil pickups are already too shrill in general, so adding more of...

    My Warmoth - should I "stratify" my strat?

    Hi MIke, Just a heads up... Keep in mind that a 1 H / 2 Sc configuration brings up an impedance issue due to the pots used for the circuit. In general, most passive single coil pickups normally use 250K pots, while humbuckers use 500K. The higher the pot value, the less the resistance and the...
