    7/8 T style, first build and a few general questions.

    good idea , I'll contact them to be sure :) Also, I received the small wrench for trussrod side adjustment, but not the one for the heel adjustment. Is it normal ? If I have to buy one is it a 7/32 inches ?

    Thanks for your help guys ! :-) I ve'made the same measurement on my Gibson ES347, and i find a 5mm extra (312mm to 629) around the G string. Maybe screwing the neck properly will reduce it a litte bit ? I've check the soapbar and they fit. Sure, i will do. I'll send it as soon as i can.

    Buying Warmoth products from Switzerland - customs procedures and costs

    Hi, what is unclear is that 1280$ (gear + shipping) does'nt make 880 CHF. It seems like it's in my advantage this time, so i'm not gonna contact UPS :p By the way it's been a good surprise as i was expecting it to be more expansive.

    Buying Warmoth products from Switzerland - customs procedures and costs

    Hello, I received it. This it the bill i got from UPS, if might be useful for the next Swiss customer. I'm not really sur i understand how they calculate.Especially the total amount (valeur) of 880 Swiss Francs. The actual value of my order was 1020$ + 260$ shipping. So it's still unclear...

    Hello everyone, I was very surprised to receive my order last week. It arrived much quicker than expected :-) Thanks to incredible team at Warmoth. There is a blue paper on the box with a few things to check before doing any work. It mention, among other things, to measure the scale length...

    One more question: I ordered Fralin P90 with standard string spacing (50mm) before I realized Tune o matic bridge is 52mm. It seems like it won’t be a problem but Fralin offers 52mm spacing. should i urgently try to update my order ? thanks

    Wow, sounds amazing indeed ! Thanks for this :) But, I already ordered fralins that I had for a reasonable price, Antiquity are way too expansive outside US... :(

    Thanks for your answer ! 1. It won't be hum cancelling ones, but still not easy to have the exact dimensions of Warmoth body routs. 2- I'm afraid i have no choice as i more or less want to copy this shape, and there is no way to have a strat style rout, and T style rout wont fit this. That's...

    1st jazzmaster build pickup cavity too shallow?

    Hello, by "too tall" you mean the depth of the rout, or height of the pickup (sorry for my poor english). Other dimensions fits ?
