Thanks, the bridge is made by ABM http://www.abm-mueller.com/index2.html Thomann is selling it in Europe, they were so cool I was able to custom order the nickel control plate. I think  All parts is selling ABM parts as well.

I can definitively hear an improvement from the compensated nut! The bridge saddles are old style but compensated, I didn't spend too much time on intonation since I still want to do a leveling job. Cannot compare with other bridges, this is my first compensated nut, so far I am liking it. I...

Hey! This is my third Warmoth and my first tele build : ) Is also the first time I do the finish myself...quite a challenge. Body: Light Swamp Ash (3lb 10oz) Neck: Flame maple (vintage construction) Hardware: All nickel, bridge and control plate from ABM (made in Germany, impressive care to...

I have a Wenge neck, and a maple satin finished one. The raw wenge neck feels good but I have nothing to complain about the maple one with satin finish. They're both feels better than gloss finished neck.

Sure you can. You can also plek stainless steel fret.

Wow, that's a sexy flame top...... Regards the setup, I suggest you to plek the guitar...... I plekked my warmoth some days ago and the difference is incredibile, both in sound and playability. The guitar scream in every position of the neck, also on the upper register bending note like a...

I plekked the guitar today. Wow. So much difference in playability  :icon_thumright:

I will consider the Wenge/Ebony combo...

Killer flame top!

Warmoth SG body are thicker than standard SG (http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=13.0) , so no neck diving problem  :cool01: Btw I have a 2008 Gibson SG with the vintage style tuners and I don't have problem of weight balance between neck and body.

Consider that warmoth neck have a scale of 25 1/2 while gibson usually have 24.75. 25 1/2 scale gives the instrument a more defined sound while the shorteer 24.75 gives a warmer sound (for more info http://www.stewmac.com/scalelengthtone.html). I suggest you to consider kluson style tuner...

eehehehe, I got it fixed (well, is not perfect but better than before)....I filled the hole with some epoxy and wood pieces, and then I repositioned the damn strap button (I also replaced the classic strap holder with the uglier but safer straplock). Now I can look at it without crying :p...

I did the same thing using the masking tape. But probably I was to worried to ruin the finish and I miss the X =_=! Anyway I can live with it.

Prefaction... Your beautiful warmoth pieces is laying on the workbench, and like a mad doctor you swing your tools to make the thing alive... A cut here, another cut there and the guitar is done... You look at it, she's beautiful but......Daaaaamn! You drill the hole in the wrong place...

Indeed I spent a lot of time on stewmac site. I found this: http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Tools/Special_tools_for:_Nuts_and_saddles/Gauged_Nut_Slotting_Files.html and I'm considering it (including some other tool like this...
