    Is there a new trem in town?

    Fender made the Panorama Trem from the AP Jazzmaster available as a separate unit. It’s only advertised as having a wider range, nothing about height or intonation. It’s also very expensive.

    VegaTrem Mounting - Modern Fender 2 Point vs Vintage 6 Point?

    Anyone know if the 2-point Vega Trem will fit in the Gotoh 510 rout?

    How much of a gamble is Black Korina?

    If you order a solid Black Korina body, is there any way of knowing how interesting (or boring) the figuring will be? There’s not really a "grading system" like there is for flame/quilted/birdseye maple. What if it’s ordered with a clear or transparent finish? Is that taken into account at all...

    Is the KNS6 not getting love?

    I’ve been dreaming of a 12 string build with Lollar Broiler pickups. I think the KNS 6 might actually be pretty decent for it. Also any chance Warmoth ever adds plexiglass to their choice of body woods? Can I have a Dan Armstrong Jazzmaster and Telecaster? What about aluminum necks?

    A thicker C-shaped neck profile, like a 1961-1965 Fender?

    This seems to be the biggest gap in Warmoth’s offerings imo. Like a C-Shaped neck that exists between the Standard Thin and the Fatback. The SRV is kind of close but has the asymmetrical shape. The 59 Roundback is kind of there but just a hair too thick. I’d assume that anyone building their...

    Direct mounting pups n stuffs

    That FU Tone thing is for a standard rout that requires a ring. If your body is routed for the "Humbucker (Direct Mount)" that Warmoth offers, it won’t help. I made a thread about this topic a little while ago. I’m still trying to figure this out myself, but I’ll tell you everything I...

    Marbled Padouk limited run is on sale now, plus.... a new kind of finish!

    Black Korina in that semi gloss finish is gonna look sick. Any estimate on when it goes live?

    Shielding direct mount pickup routs?

    How would you go about shielding direct mount pickup routs on a rear routed body, this while still having continuity between the other cavities? I feel like copper tape would be somewhat visible around the pickups and look tacky, but shielding paint is largely a farce unless you have some...

    Lace Sensor fans and electronics-savy people, I need some input on what Sensor colors to pick.

    Remember how in the first post of this thread I talked about reading Lace’s website, and how they "describe the pickup’s sound while avoiding saying what it actually is to avoid trademark infringement?" Well, I’ve been reading up on the Fishman Fluence website, and Greg Koch’s signature...

    No 720 mod option for the Split Jazzmaster?

    To my understanding the 720 mod is available on rear routed bodies to compensate for the lack of a Pickguard taking up space where the neck meets the body. The Split Jazzmaster is rear routed for the pickups and a Pickguard doesn’t go into that area. It seems the 720 mod isn’t an option for the...

    Gibson is really hyping up something Back to the Future related.

    Back to the Future's 40th anniversary is this year. In celebration, Gibson have been running a series where they’re looking for the exact ES-345 used on the set of Back to the Future in the Johnny B. Goode scene. The production value of these videos, and the fact that they’re using actual...

    RIP Ozzy

    There actually are recordings out there of Iommi and Bonham jamming off the cuff in the studio.

    RIP Ozzy

    This is the third time I’ve ever felt genuine grief over a celebrity I didn’t know personally falling off this mortal coil. The other two were Robin Williams and Alex Trebek. I guess Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds too, but that was more over the nature of how that happened.

    Build Thread: Voodoo-style Nashville Tele

    Have you ever seen the Parallel Universe Nashville Tele that Fender released in 2018? It has a Humbucker in the bridge and the Tele bridge pickup in the middle. It would be a fun project to try to recreate or do a variation of if Warmoth offered the Tele bridge pickup route in the middle as an...

    Are there plans to update the Color Choices page on the website or the Color Catalog PDF?

    @Wolff05 Great. My last request for now: Do you have butterscotch blonde, transparent yellow, and/or vintage tint over roasted ash? Preferably a Tele? Trying to envision a "what if Fender used roasted woods in the 50s" concept.
