Roasted Maple, with RM Fingerboard, Gibson scale conversion, SS6150 frets.  $150 plus shipping. It's almost in perfect condition, I was able to find 3 small nicks on the headstock.  They are pictured and circled in red.  Can't see the front one unless you get up super close. There's literally...

So those of you who didn't want to fuss with actually setting in waterslide logos, but did want something on the headstock, can you share examples of what you did, whether it's regular adhesive decals, other ideas etc. Thanks!

Question, got a neck in that was spec'd for gotoh/grover tuner ream.  Have some Gotoh magnum tuners I am throwing in the holes. I haven't screwed/fastened them in the headstock yet, but just test fitting them, they are not snug fit at all.  All other warmoth necks I've had you needed to give it...

Thanks!  If I had unlimited money I'd love to keep it.  I'd love to be that guy that has 30 guitars. :) Just don't want to keep something around I don't bond with, need that money to keep the build addiction going!

EDIT : Body is sold, neck remains. ================================ Built this gorgeous girl.  However, as it is my first LP style, just really decided after a bit that I didn't jive with that style of guitar.  Looking to sell to use that money to fund a Jazzmaster build. >$2100 all in after...

Two things.... 1) What is a ....mm..ma...maga.zine?  Am I saying that right?  :) 2) If someone wanted to be on the lookout for said....print publication......where would someone...need to constantly and obsessively refresh in order to try and catch a glimpse of these things?

For the record, I flipped the saddle and it worked. That was *VERY* difficult to do.  That threaded washer/nut on the other end of the bridge was just about impossible to grab onto and was locked down so tight that I was worried I was going to strip the screw head.  But eventually, got it. ...

So when I flip that saddle, I'm obviously going to have to file it a bit yea?  Or no?

Got all 3 on mine and I love it.  Although mine is non traditional to begin with, because I wanted the thinline PG on a solid body.  And it's dual buckers. So.....it's just kind of....sorta... a tele.  :)

Got a dilemma and I thought I'd come to you fine educated folk for some help.  Just finished a Regal build (pic attached), and the thing just RIPS.  Used it to record this Master of Puppets cover (It's down 1 step which is why Hettfield's vocal stems sound like he's got a mouthful of cotton...

Thanks guys.  So just in general then aside from the E slipping off.....  Is the Nut width between those two noticeable 7th fret and up?  How does it manifest itself in feel?

Geez.  Why so long?  I could maybe wait 2 seconds........

You guys with 1 5/8" nuts notice a problem with the high E slipping off the board from time to time?  I have 3 warmoth necks that are all 1 5/8", and am interested in potentially checking out a 1 11/16", but not sure how big of a difference that extra 16th makes. Any input?  Thanks!

Super excited to learn more. 1) I always thought that you couldn't show a rendering of a complete Warmoth build due to licensing with Fender saying you couldn't appear to sell complete guitars.  Well I don't know how THIS gets past that.  :)  But I'm glad it is. 2) How much time will there be...

Cagey, Do you ever have to redo this to regain that feel?  i.e. annually etc?  If so, do you follow the same procedure, starting out with 600 etc.?
