    Aaron, am I dreaming or is the heel shape different in this picture? Is this finally the modern contoured heel??!

    A Modern Contoured Heel

    Wow, Aaron is on fire today! What brand of green tea are you drinking?! ;) Thanks for the detailed response. Yes, compatibility is the big constraint. I am definitely not assuming that it's easy! Your wishlist is a great one. I am with you on every single item! Super-encouraging to hear that...

    A Modern Contoured Heel

    The Warmoth contoured heel option has existed unchanged for many years. What I personally don't like about it is that the screws meet the neck plate at an angle (which is the main motivation for adding a neck plate pad beneath the neck plate in this scenario, defeating the purpose IMO). I...

I've been assuming I'd do this: * Clean the surface beforehand * Use a fresh black sharpie * Mask all but the headstock face *...

    Removal Of Foil Tape On A Warmoth Pickguard?

    Hi, I purchased a custom pickguard from Warmoth but neglected to request omission of the foil shielding. I will be using a Callaham aluminum shield instead, so am thinking about removing the adhesive foil. Does anybody know if Warmoth's foil will come off easily and without leaving adhesive...
