Well...... several ways to respond to this: In a recent peer-reviewed study, professor Fonseca leParque concluded:  "Horticulturalists can't be counted on to have unbiased opinions about crane worshipers."  I'm surely am not as credentialed as he.  However, in my amateur way, I had already...

Rick: Sorry for late response- new to Warmoth forums- didn't see page 2.  Thanks for info.  Quite involved.  Would have to try it myself to really get it.

Air Cap: So I'm learning- Warmoth basically said the same.  Didn't realize the hoops ya gotta go thru.  He said they finish in climate controlled rooms including de-humidification.  And take minimum 4 weeks. So I'm gonna try to cheat a little- but may work out OK.  I think we're all familiar...

Rick: Thanks for the welcome- great forum.  And I really like Warmoth stuff I've bought so far.  Hope they will be around for a while. I have some Trueoil and messed with it a little.  Didn't realize that much time was needed.  Does it soak into the wood?  Or actually set on the surface like a...

A couple drops et right thru every layer down to the bare wood in about 1 or two minutes.  That said, the final coat had only dried for about 14 hours when I did the test.  I'm talkin about "denatured alcohol" from Home Depot.   StewMac says that letting it cure for a month or two will make a...

Seems to me that any guitar part should be able to resist alcohol.  I don't think any stock fender can have finish anywhere on it disolved by alcohol (tried it on one of my stock necks).  I was told by StewMac that naptha will work on cleaning the tape glue from my neck finished with their...

Ya Cagey: it's tempting.  Takes 5 weeks (?).  Thing is, I still wanna do headstock decal and serial no, MADE in USA on back decal.  So still gotta do some finishing on headstock even if I have Warmoth do the finishing first. At this point, I'm thinking use the Colortone Nitro spray process...

Thanks- very happy to be in the forum!! Guitar is hung upside down from a boom against white backdrop in sunlight.  Then rotate in Photoshop.  Glad you like it.  Will cut and paste a better version on a sky background to make it really levitate at sme point.  I'm telling you, this neck is...

Just completed a VERY nice Warmoth neck (Tele vintage/modern, LSR roller nut, maple, dark ebony fretboard, 6130 low frets, Fender locking staggered chrome tuners).  This connected to a Fender branded swamp ash Butterscotch Blonde 6lb 4oz body off eBay.  I installed B5 Bigsby, Callaham Bigsby...
