    Koa Limited Release

    It feels very nice, although, not as smooth as raw roasted maple because the grain isn't as tight, but still really smooth. And the color is really different. I didn't choose the "dark" option so I got something more of a medium brown with a lot of streaks that are almost a subtle rainbow of...

    Koa Limited Release

    I did an all rosewood neck for my recent Koa build. This time, I'm going roasted flame maple + ebony (black).

    Koa Limited Release

    The island of fire and ice! I was on the Kona side and used to do a lot of photography. Kilauea was far from where I lived and it was tough to try to sync up with all of the major lava events due to work. I have gotten up super close where my shoes melted, my arm hair singed and I poked it with...

    Koa Limited Release

    Fun fact about ghostrider25, I lived on the Big Island of Hawaii which is the land of Koa up until 8 years ago. It was more plentiful there than on mainland USA, obviously, but even that well started to get quite a bit drier as the years passed by. Koa is just so slow growing. I have no idea how...

    Koa Limited Release

    Got one! 🏖️🌴☀️ I bought a Koa top last summer when unique choice was still a thing. The options were on the slim side and, while it does look really, really nice, there's no way it can compete with some of those in that release. I couldn't resist this one! 🔥

    New video: How to wrap strings the Warmoth way!

    I've always been afraid of stabbing myself in the eye while changing strings. I got glasses for working at the computer about a year ago and I thought to myself, "Self, sure you've never been stabbed in the eye while changing strings, but that is surely a fluke. Better wear your new glasses...

    Tiger’s Eye Dye on Quilted Maple?

    Things I think: …the difference is the amount that the back color is sprayed over the top to blend the burst with the top. …the non-burst over will still have some that ends up over the top edge but not as much as the burst over option. …you have to get burst over if you get natural masked...

    That's weird. I have a rear-routed Strat jack from 2015... ...which I now regret not getting a 7/8 side jack so it's just as well. I was thinking, functionally, it's nice to sit on a couch to practice and not have the cable being smashed into the cushion, but I should've just used a 90deg plug...

    He means the Strat jack that goes on the top of the body. I see that too. If I pick top route, the Strat jack is an option. If I pick rear route, it's not.

    No reserve auction

    I have some Porter "Vintage Custom" single coils. I'm happy with them.
