well the way you say it, it sounds silly  :icon_tongue: but yeah, i think the soloist looks a little *too* aggressive.  i want the sharp tone of the emgs, i like that.  and i kinda want a "shocking" paint job.  something new and unique.  but i like a classic look with a new edge. sorry if my...

hahah, yeah, right now i'm still in the art design of it.  as the project comes closer and closer i'll look into more of the technical aspects.  i really like the switch idea to change the batteries from series to parallel.  that's why i'm asking for opinions  :icon_thumright:

i thought i would need 1 battery per pickup. both pickups would be emgs... whatever, the extra compartment would be a spare battery to carry around.  i'll just cut a connection or something. i want the killswitch WITH the tone switch because i don't want to be limited to one pickup.  when Tom...

i already emailed one of the guys and they said that they'll only do the strat layout on a strat body.  as for your soloist suggestion, i kinda wanted to keep a classic rock look with some attitude.  soloist just makes me seem too "metal" and serious.  i love the strat look.  it's classic.  i...

i'm okay with drilling that myself.  i feel like the more work *I* personally do, the happier i'll be with it.  i want warmoth to do the careful stuff like pickup routes and body layout.  but i can always ask  :icon_thumright:  saves me some work if they will

i was told as i was just started out that "real bassists don't use a pick"... so i guess i kind of learned that mentality. i'm now trying to learn slap (and make it sound good :P)  i've got some practicing to do

Hey all, I've never built a Warmoth before, this is going to be my first.  (hopefully i'll order by the end of summer.)  I'm toying with some ideas and i want to know what you all think.  any input is greatly appreciated.  i know that i'm going to have to do some drilling and routing, and i'm...

Far from.  Drugs never really appealed to me as well.  But maybe that's why i lack so much creativity...  :icon_tongue:

that's the most detailed quilt i've ever seen.  it looks amazing!  i think it would look cooler in a wine-red though. 

Definitely option 3.  i think the pickguard draws too much attention away from the actual body of the guitar.  option 1 seems to gaudy for my tastes and option 2 looked "empty". rankings: 1st - option 3 2nd - option 1 3rd - option 2

Geddy Lee and John Entwistle. Geddy Lee: Malignant Narcissism on Snakes and Arrows. Entwistle: The Real Me on Quadrophenia both have outstanding bass parts

i definitely dig it.  both the body and the head have wide curves, so it seems to flow pretty nicely.  i.e. an explorer head would look too sharp to fit the body.  and i'm using the same technique of photoshop to find my likings :P  try p'shopping in some pickups and stain to see how you'll like...

it's just research.  it's like if i chose a message, then someone says, "well why didn't you write... ?"  and they put it much nicer.  then i'm SOL.  i'm just getting some input.    for example, i hadn't thought of PLAY LOUD, but i really dig it.  it can be taken as so much more than the...

that looks wicked!  it looks like it came straight from hell !  well done, man.
