Maybe someone in this forum has some wisdom to share on the matter? Simply put, I wonder if I can, safely, connect and use a 4 ohm cab with a 8 ohm amp? It's a combo but the the internal speaker is muted when you connect an external. After doing some research on the subject, I decided that...

Yes! Finally managed to get my hands on a new switch, and after a few hours of installation the story ends on the bright side! Works perfect again! I'm so glad :) Funny thing, I actually got the switch from a guy who was buying a pedal from me. As we discussed the price of the pedal he asked...

Seems to be the only thing to do then, replacing it. Will try to get a hold of a new expensive rascal and return with a report! When I think about it, I haven't seen it on many guitars other than my own and the Petrucci guy's. Strange, it's really a nice switch. Well, when it works I probably...

Interesting. Thanks for the video, Hendrix. The neck is a flamed maple with flamed maple board. I like the guitar a bit too much to risk it I think. However, Tung Oil seems interesting. Is that the same as Warmoth offers as their 'clear satin' finish by the way?

A while ago, I decided to try to remove the glossy finish on the back of the neck on a old (squier)strat laying around. I was very happy with the results, but I wanted to wait some time to see if the raw wood would somehow get bad not being protected by the finish. This was about six months ago...

Hi!  :) I've run into a problem with my otherwise nice warmoth-strat. Two humbuckers wired to a Dimarzio EP1111 3-way switch a la Petrucci-style, meaning 1) neck 2) one coil of each in series 3) bridge. When working properly, it's killer. But every now and then one of the pickups just went...

Absolutely stunning strat, love the painting!  :toothy10:

Nice, so there was no need to bend the plate at all then? But I doubt that it'd work for my guitar - I mean, I'm too afraid to do it that way...  :sad:

Please, anything but pliers...  :-\ But ok then, I'll give it a shot and try not to scratch off too much of the black finish  :icon_thumright:

Hello forum, I'm quite excited since this might be the last post on the forum before I put up som pics of my new geeta' in the gallery...  :toothy10: But here's the problem. I did expect the jack plate (football) to be already bent so that it would fit the strat body. Although it was bent to a...

Enlarged the hole a bit, no problem at all  :icon_thumright:

I think I'll try that, it can't be that hard  :icon_thumright: I'm curious though, with the larger pre-drilled hole that Warmoth offers, is the jack hanging without touching the wood at all? Wouldn't that put a lot of pressure on the jack plate everytime you plug/unplug a cable?  :icon_scratch:

I'm trying to install a switchcraft jack in a strat body with 3/4" side jack hole. I have to push it quite a bit to get the jack into the hole, but it should be tight anyway so I don't mind that. The problem is, when I then connect a guitar cable to the jack it won't go all the way in. Because...

Looks very good!  :hello2:
