    Need recommendation on selling my Warmoth

    I've noticed that Warmoth with crazy looking woods with nice figuring and blue dye, sell well. If it just looks like a normal white strat, you are lucky to get 25% of what it costs to build it.

    Bass String Ferrules

    "Zero Flute" countersinking bits shave through wood and finish without chipping or tearout. Unplug your drillpress, and just hand turn the chuck until the bit shaves the hole to the proper diameter.  Then drill out the wood conventionally for depth.  These bits self center, so no worries...

    Does Warmoth sell paint?

    The household poly jobs that have come through my shop all have a yellow cast to them after a few years. Even the "non-yellowing" formulas seem to turn yellow. I'd send your neck to Warmoth and have them spray the face of the headstock at the same time. That way, any changes (fading...

    Most real hardware stores sell "Brass Shim Stock" for $1.99 Get the thinnest (maybe .005" ) and simply stack it up until you have .018 - .02" gap between the bottom of the strings and the top of the first fret. A drop of white glue will hold it all in place once you get it right. ...

    New Forum Member, 2nd time Warmoth Builder, introducing my new build

    I was at GC and the manager asked how I've been. Vid: Does anyone actually buy this stuff? [pointing to the $8K Gibson on the wall] Manager:  That?? I mean no actual player buys that stuff.  Some attorney or dentist will buy it and hang it on the wall of their office.  V:  Really? M: ...
