    First Warmoth Build - Hentor Sportscaster

    @ruscio - Thanks for the compliments and yes, this is a special instrument to play. @fingolfen - I used a standard strat routing template and then used a dremel to cut the wiring channel out of the template. I did an outline of the pickguard on the body with a watercolor pencil to gauge where...

    First Warmoth Build - Hentor Sportscaster

    The wiring is neck, neck/middle, bridge. I can’t remember which forum I was on, but there were several threads that mentioned that this was how Alex had it wired up with the three way mod.

I had to do a minor amount of sanding at low speed with a Dremel to widen it just a bit. I mounted it with the mounting ring under the pickguard to fill in the small gap that was...

    First Warmoth Build - Hentor Sportscaster

    Hi folks, New member to the forum here and wanted to share some pics from my first Warmoth build - a replica Hentor Sportcaster, based on the Fender Stratocaster that was the predecessor to the actual Hentor. I'm a huge Rush fan and Alex Lifeson was the reason I picked up a guitar. When Moving...
