I saw your strat build and I have seen that thread before. Love the colour and it's one of the reasons I wanted a purple warmoth ;-)
However, I am afraid reply #13 shows the same issue I face with my guitar body. You can see the left trem insert and post that it is off-center of the edge knife. you should measure the distance between the posts. I bet they are at least 56.5-57 mm (should be 55.9mm) apart. It might that in your case it works, however, in my case the tremolo has no room to move up, only down and the posts are not perpendicular to the edge knifes.
In any case I went to a respected luthier in Holland to ask his opinion and he was really surprised, that this otherwise stunning piece of woodwork had such a major flaw. He is going to repair it, so it will work as it is supposed to.
I would like to thank you all for your comments. It did not help me with Warmoth, I think they are really fed up with me, but thanks anyway!! :icon_thumright:
