Yeah, i got the woods down and all of that. I'm still just curious to what they sound like coming from the warmoth body with the flat top and rear routing.

I notice now that a number of people on the forum have built the hollow L5S. Any chance any of you guys could post some audio? It would be great to hear some good examples of clean tones and perhaps some mild OD. I'm planning another build, and the hollow L5S (with f-holes) is at the top of my...

Looks great! Would love to hear how it sounds when its done! :icon_thumright:

Hey, Anyone know where I can find a black concentric knob WITH a position marker of some sort. Warmoth has a $25 min, and the ALLPARTS one is designed for some sort of EMG pup and wont fit on a standard concentric pot. I really want a concentric knob that is marked in some way so I know where...

Thanks for your replies! I give Warmoth a call and see what they say.

Anyone know if Warmoth has a finish that would be equal to the ES-335 "Walnut" Finishes that Gibson used for a while on their maple tops? Here are some examples: http://www.rocknrollvintage.com/prodimages/1973%20es335%20walnut%20small.jpg http://www.gpguitars.com/images/CRW_1687.jpg...

Hey man, thanks for your help. Yeah, i suck at electronics. Before posting here, I even called Lollar on the phone, and they didnt know how to do it. They said it might not even be possible. Anyway, I'm gonna try what you sent in the next day or 2 and hopefully it will work out well. Thanks...

Hey, that schematic is close... But i am using single coils (i dont know if that makes a difference, since the schematic you sent is for humbuckers) and i have 1 vol and 2 tone....your schematic has 2 vol. Hmmmm.....

Sorry, a bit of an error in my last post. I can't seem to wire the guitar to have both OUT OF PHASE and SERIES. I can wire the guitar to have out of phase. I can also have it wired for SERIES. But not both, weird, right? So, I guess I just need a strat schematic that would be this: 2 pups 1...

Hey, So I am wiring up my warmoth strat with 2 Harmonic Design Z-90 pups. I want to wire the guitar so it has a 3 way switch (neck - neck/bridge - bridge). I was then going to have 1 volume and 2 tone knobs. I want each tone knob to be a push-pull. Tone 1 pulled would access SERIES wiring...

Hey Jack, Did you ever make any audio samples of this guitar? I would love to hear them if you did. Also, you mentioned that this guitar has replaced your 335. How does this guitar compare (similarities and differences) to your 335? Thanks!

Oh yeah, I'm also taking out the wilkinson and putting in a 6 point Callaham bridge!! I fed up with the wilkinson and 2-pivots in general.

+1 for carved top L5S!  :icon_thumright:

Thanks! I ordered the Callaham 6 point a few days ago. My guitar tech is gonna fill the 2 holes and drill for 6-point so I can use the entire Callaham set up. I have had 2 points in the past and the blade always starts to wear down, which causes all sorts of problems. I'm gonna stick with 6...

Anyone have any experience with the ALL CALLAHAM (6-point) Trem? I'm conidering drilling new holes to fit this one...Does this bridge function properly if set to FLOAT? The Callaham site say this: I recommend a minimum of 4 springs for the bridges. They should be set so that if you are doing...
