That def looks like the trem that came with the body, I will have to move the posts though to get it into the correct position, I think, I'll know more when i get the neck hopefully this week, thanks so much for your help,

Ok, I presumed that they were referring to the cavity route, ie it was in a different position to what it would be for a standard trem or vintage trem etc. Thanks for the help.

I am guessing that the previous owner drilled and installed the studs for the bridge that he had & not realized (like me) that it was routed for Floyd Rose.

Its approx 64mm. I am guessing that the previous owner installed the studs for the bridge that he had (the one in the photo) but the routing is placed for a Floyd Rose, I did send a pic to the folks at Warmoth and they kindly replied saying this was a floyd rose route.

Hi, looking for some advice.  I have this Strat body that's been knocking around for a few years and have decided its time to get it sorted, I have already purchased a neck, the Warmoth body came with a tremolo already on it but I've only just noticed its not correct as this body was routed for...

Some pics of my latest puchase.

Its the super real series 1981, sunburst, dont have it yet so cant post pics but will as soon as it gets here

Just waiting on delivery of a new purchase SA900 by Greco, real pity Warmoth cant do this type of body, have read all the reasoning behind why not but maybe someday it will be possible. I would def be interested if they ever manage it.

That is a lot of time, is that practice time or work? Interesting insights into the whole SS fret business.

5 miles or 5000 miles I think the procedure is the same for everyone that orders a neck from Warmoth (apart from import taxes to Europe), do some more homework on it, I think you will be glad you did. Good luck.

Godin "Montreal" is on a short list of Guitars I am currently looking into getting. Godin make some nice Guitars there in Canada, great that you can buy local.

"So your question is: Do I dislike going back to play guitars that don't have SS frets." Yeah that was the basic idea of my question, as I mentioned earlier I am thinking about a ES 335 or 333 purchase, but I dont think the feel of the nickel frets is something I could or want to get used to...

Line6man I did do a search but still wanted to ask the question, isnt that why most of us are on here?.To give and receive useful info Any way my reason for asking is that I am looking at buyin a new guitar possibly a Gibson ES 335, tried a couple, but something just does not feel right about...

Just curious did anyone on here ever use Stainleess steel frets on a build and not like them as compared to regular nickel/silver.

Great info there on the ES model differences, very helpful.
