    Jazzmaster Pickup Mounting.

    I did mean top route, my mistake. And in order to do that would I just need the springs and screws - no pickup ring needed and no wood mounting needed?

    Jazzmaster Pickup Mounting.

    I'm looking into a top routed Jazzmaster build with a HH configuration and was wondering about the pickup routing options. Would I direct mount the pickups into the wood and go for the option of a wood mount? Or is there another option for how to mount a humbucker on a Jazzmaster - I don't...

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    That's perfect - roasted maple it is! Just to check - with the specs for the neck above, would it be possible to have a straight swap for the neck on a jim root jazzmaster?

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    Interesting - I read that you had to finish the neck because they wouldn't be suitable for long term playability. I prefer the feel of satin/untreated wood. I've put the clear satin nitro finish down on the back of the neck out of necessity, however that doesn't have to be the case, is that right?

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    Thanks for this - really helpful. I'm going to give the battery box a miss and fix the fishman USB pack in the route I think. I'm based in the UK so will take a long time to arrive but I'll definitely post pictures! I'm tempted to amend the neck to baked maple instead of maple but I probably...

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    I also just wanted to check - the battery box option - does that come with the box that clips in to the body? I'm intending to make the guitar active so I could use the battery box option, however considering the size of the back rout I could potentially put a makeshift battery box in there.

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    I have a guitar tech I use who's refinished a few of my guitars previously so he's going to apply a nitro 'aged silverburst' finish. The only things I'm unsure of is the jack input size (I'm not sure what the differences are), whether or not to have chrome or black hardware and whether or not...

    My first Warmoth order - any advice?

    Hello all! I'm looking at my very first custom warmoth made - body and neck. It's based off the Jim Root Jazzmaster - but with a bit more tonal options. I've included the specs down below for what I've put through, but I've not clicked the order button yet as I've heard that any late changes...
