I came across something similar to that diagram (thanks anyway) : http://www.premierguitar.com/Magazine/Issue/2009/Jun/Stratocaster_Tone_Split_Mod.aspx (i did example 2). The only things that I changed were an on/on/on switch for the humbucker to make it serial/split/parallel, a 500k resistor...

no, it`s 2 tone pots (500k for the bridge humbucker and 1 250k for the 2 single coils together) and 1 master volume pot (500k). basically, 1 tone for the neck + middle 1 tone for the bridge humbucker 1 master volume. the problem that I have is how to wire the 2 tones to be independent from...

thanks moldymealworm. now, if I wanted to have a 500k volume pot (master), 250k tone for both single coils and 500k tone for the bridge humbucker, how should I wire the tone pots so that each one will have its own independent cap? (0.22 for 250k and 0.47 for 500k) the way it`s wired now, the...

Hello, I want to wire my new Warmoth Guitar with a h-s-s configuration, but not like a stock strat. what I want to have is: 1 master volume, 1 tone for neck and middle and 1 tone for the humbucker. All the wiring diagrams that I`m finding on the internet are for stock strats (no tone knob for...

Hi rightintheface, I used to have a similar problem, not with the recessed bridge but with a truss rod which had reached the end point. The neck had a little relief, slightly more than I liked but I was too afraid of forcing it. It felt so stiff that I decided to leave like that and accept the...

I actuallt thought of using a wash coat of tru oil as a sealer, then grain fill with black and tru oil again... thanks

Hello, I was wondering: if I finish my next black korina guitar with tru oil and then use Meguiar`s crystal clear and/or carnauba wax to give it a more glossy look, how can I fix the finish if it gets scratched ? I mean, if I want to fix that with a few more coats of tru oil every now and then...

well, if i don`t use a sealer the black grain filler will colour the korina, and not just the pores. so the sealer for me is a must for the kind of effect i have in mind... why would the shellac not be good by the way?

I really wonder why Spike told me that 3 customers of warmoth had to make the route for a fender vintage tremolo bigger to fit the wilkinson vsvg... anyway, it doesn`t matter anymore, i can sleep well...

hello, I`ll be finishing my black korina guitar as soon as it gets shipped by warmoth. What I want to do is a washcoat of some sealer not to let the black grain filler affect the colour of the wood too much (I only want to fill the pores with it) then tru oil. the question that I have is: is it...

customs should not be a problem if you ship the guitars to yourself (even if overseas). you are not buying so there are no tax to be paid...

that`s quite a relief to know that it will fit fine...

Hi greenfuzz13, did you have to modIfy the route for the bridge made by Warmoth to use the Wilkinson VSVG?

Hello, I just ordered a strat body with the vintage 6 holes bridge route and Spike told me I will have to shave one side of the route to fit a Wilkinson VSVG bridge. I didn`t know this, I still went for it thinking it should not be too difficult for me to modify the route with a dremel tool...

OK, I think you all convinced me to go with an on/on/on switch and do something like jackthehack  did. Now I need to buy a black korina body, wenge neck and the pots from our beloved Warmoth and get working when it gets shipped (I`m in London UK). I will place the order as soon as Monday...
