    I understand you need to take caution when drilling into the roasted woods. What kind of "caution" are we talking about?

    Here's what it means Dr. Egon Spengler: Don't cross the streams. Dr. Peter Venkman: Why? Dr. Egon Spengler: It would be bad. Dr. Peter Venkman: I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad"? Dr. Egon Spengler: Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and...

    Vega trem screws a bit long

    Now that you've had both in the guitar, what do you think of Vega Trem vs. Rail tail ? I's one better than the other? Was there a reason you removed the Rail Tail? I have the rail tail in my one and only trem bar Stratocaster, mainly because it offers the wide string spacing (also called...

    Building a 12-string--possible neck dive issues?

    So the neck dives because it is able to pull the guitar strap down after it. The guitar strap is held in place by the friction between the strap and your clothes. Increase that friction and the force opposing the diving neck is increased. Get a wider strap as Don, says or / and make your 12...

    Vintage Spacing strat neck/nut questions…

    Hey So the reason why I buy necks from warmoth is the the Superwide 48mm nut (1 7/8in). Since you are a real man (6'5 big hands you say) why don't you get a real neck?? And by real I mean 48mm. In regards to your question, the string spacing at the nut is much more important than the bridge, so...

    Need help preventing ski jumps

    Hey Ben First of I feel your pain, never lost a guitar to neck problems, but did lose one to a hurricane and that still stings. I think you should thoroughly investigate the range of humidity where you live. I know Dallas has an actual winter, sometimes with snow, does the humidity really drop...

    Need help preventing ski jumps

    Hi What kind of wood are your necks? Both shaft and fretboard? I live in the swamp city of Houston TX. I get all my necks in roasted maple (shaft wood) because of my fear of neck warping. My guitars are all out on stands, however here in the swamp it's super humid in summertime and just regular...

    Swapping Necks: Putting a Warmoth/Fender neck on a recent Kramer Barretta Special

    Okay Nacho Well that is a pity, since you have first hand experience on this matter, we will defer to you. The Baretta special you're referring to is the recent Indonesia made one correct?

    There's Some Little Red Spots on My Neck Today...

    Could be worse, could be a "...dead salmon frozen in a waterfall..."

    Since the various Warmoth guitar woods, parts, options etc. can be compared to McDonald's sandwiches.........................

    Hey I'm late to the party, but my preferred neck the "Superwide" is definitely the "Big Mac" of the guitar neck world.

    You're Messing With My Head. Warmoth's 6100 fret wire is actually Dunlop 6000 fret wire?

    Hey there Wchoy I've got some other mind blowing news for you. When you're tuning down to "Eb" you actually tuning up to "D#" ! The cool key of "F#" actually is the same as "Gb". On a more serious note, before I bought my first Warmoth neck, I cut and pasted huge chunks out of the Warmoth...

    Warmoth Quality Issues?

    Well that is very distressing. I recently ordered and received in late December 2024 a custom neck. It seems fine to me although I haven't put it on a guitar yet, so fingers crossed. I remember a long time ago, talking to a guy who owned a mail order business (that's when it was called "mail...
