That's FDR's face on the dime. The dent is from the micro-tilt screw. The dime is a bit softer than the steel disc that was on the Fender neck but it works well enough to protect the wood. My Ovation Custom Legend has an OP Pro pre-amp. It has much more EQ capacity than the Acoustasonic...

I recently posted a thread about a low cost truss rod cover for tilt-back necks. In that post I acknowledged with much gratitude the response posted here by Stratamania. I now have a Gibson conversion neck on my Acoustasonic Player Telecaster. I use Ernie Ball Earthwood custom medium gauge...

First off I want to thank Senior Member, Stratamania. Several months ago I posted a question about the possibility of using a Warmoth Gibson conversion neck on a Fender Acoustasonic. Stratamania quickly posted a full analysis of the issues I might encounter. Utilizing his expert advice I...

This is a Warmoth Strat build that I put a solid walnut PG on. Got it on Reverb. Old style 8 screws. Rosewood knobs I got on ebay. The ash PUP covers I found on the internet.

Does anyone here know if a Warmoth Gibson scale conversion neck would fit/work on a Fender Acoustasonic?

I placed an order for  a chambered Strat body and roasted maple neck, both unfinished, on Saturday, July 10th.  The order was shipped Friday, August 20th.  5 weeks , 6 days.  :blob7: :hello2:

This is 7/8 I assembled a few years ago

The 24th fret has two dots on the fretboard and on the side of the fingerboard

When you take on a Warmoth build project you assume the risk that if you end up with a guitar you eventually want to sell you will not get back what you paid in money, time and labor.  That said, my Warmoth guitar is worth the cost and my efforts and really beyond what I expected.  The modern...

My custom finished body and neck arrived in 7 weeks.  The waiting is the hardest part.  I did obtain all of the hardware in advance so when I received the body, neck and pickguard I was ready to assemble.  I also had a junk pickguard that I used to pre-wire the pots and pups which saved some...

First off I want to thank the folks here at the forum.  The choices that Warmoth offers can be mind boggling.  I spent much time reading the posts here before making my decisions particularly with the neck and frets.  I am very satisfied with my choice of Clapton profile, maple/maple, satin...

Got it assembled in one day!  Ordering a pre-finished neck and body made this an easy project.  I had all of the hardware ready to go.  I pre-wired all the electronics on an old Strat pickguard so when I received the shipment from Warmoth, which took 7 weeks from the time I placed the order,  I...

The pickguard is white pearloid from Warmoth.  I'm working on wiring it up.  Seymour Duncan Everything Axe pups, 250K pots with a cap and resistor treble bleed.  I have a Babicz original full contact hardtail bridge and hipshot staggered locking tuners.  This is my first Warmoth build but I've...

Getting started on a 7/8 Strat project.  The body is Swamp Ash with contoured heal.  The neck is maple/maple with Clapton profile and 6105 SS frets.  I didn't specify a one piece body but that's how Warmoth made it.  Thanks Warmoth!
