Rear routed Warmoth  bodies come with control cavity covers supplied. :icon_thumright:

Here are a couple of pics that may help. This is a Warmoth body with a standard neck Humbucker route. The finished guitar features a SD antiquity mini humbucker which is pickguard mounted on a Warmoth guard. If your pickup rout will accomodate the mini'bucker, which it should, Pickguardian...

That 4-stringer started life as a Fender Japan 57 re-issue in 1993. I bought it in Sydney 5 or 6 years ago in its original condition. It was candy apple red and had a white single ply pickguard. I really fell for the neck, it's quite a lot slimmer to play than American necks and the headstock is...

Now why would the builder of the year 2009 need instructions from little ol' me.  :icon_jokercolor: I wish I could do a finish like your killer VIP  :sad: Best you come over here and bring a bit of swamp ash with you Marko. We're fixing up the downstairs apartment as a holiday home for overseas...

No it's an epiphone sheraton made in Korea  (Samick factory 2002)  that I bought in Huddersfield. The pickguard was made in Columbus Ohio by the same guy that made the gold guard for the bass. Incidently, that broken glass effect is something that just happened naturally over the five years it...

These are the before/after shots of what the body ended up on...

Thanks for the welcome back guys. I will do a proper layout in the gallery once I get my Flickr thingy sorted. Meantime....   I bought the body on sale. It's swamp ash. Barndoor MkII Marko?

Any business that would deliberately stock slow selling or limited market items beyond a minimum level wouldn't stay viable. Believe me, I would love to see more lefty product in the showcase but I realise it just isn't going to happen. I've been a lefty player for 40+ years and I can safely say...

Bomburst?  :icon_scratch:

I like the soloist body, it looks like wood. :hello2: The others look like accordians. :icon_tongue:
