Many thanks for setting me straight MikeW and Cagey! Getting nearer and nearer to the final design!

Am I to understand that you set the bridge forward to float a little then? Thanks for sharing the experience with me, it helps me out a ton! Thanks Cagey. I guess just the sensation of unison bends can be... disconcerting on a floating trem. It's an odd feeling on the surrounding strings as...

That is the most perfectly matching inlay you could have picked- it just fits the vibe of the guitar perfectly. Great work!

And gosh dang it- I love the brown bobbins with the satin red baseplate  :-\ but I don't think I'll be dishing out the additional money for custom colors. Maybe if I end up getting the pups handwound...

We're on the same brainwave about all of this dude! Saw the aristocrats live, got there a couple hours early just so I could grab a spot in the front. It was so packed I ended up standing literally a foot and a half from Guthrie the whole time, directly facing him. Pure inspiration man. Plus I...

:hello2:  You guys are killing it with the great info!! Thank you so much MikeW, Cagey, Kostas, Stratmania, and others. Makes me proud to be part of the Warmoth community. Anyways, I agree Cagey, I just don't find a locking tremolo necessary for me, and am looking forward to avoiding the...

Generally speaking, the biggest factor for me in choosing a headstock design is if the string travel is straight from the nut, (even above aesthetics) for the exact reasons you posted!

I think I've seen just about every video Guthrie's in at least a couple times...  :toothy12:  Never once a mention on neck profile, from what I remember. Also worth noting, he actually ditched the graphtec ASAP because his heavy trem use was sawing the strings into the slots, lowering his...

Sweet, makes sense. I hate locking nuts, love to take them out of the equation!

I wonder why he opted for the floyd lacking fine tuners...

Thanks guys, great points. I would of course never pick a profile that doesn't suit me, but I do like some different profiles on different guitars, my Warmoths range from the Wizard to the Wolfgang. I think my ideal would be a slightly thinner Wolfgang, but hey. Good to know about the Gotoh 510...

Hey Guys, New to the forum, but I've been on the Seymour Duncan forums for awhile and I've been a Warmoth customer since 2011. I've been thinking about a new Warmoth project, in the style of Guthrie Govan's sig. Charvel, and I've got a few discussion questions floating around in my head-...
