Honestly, I wish I never found this place. I will surely lose my job now checking out all the cool Warmouth guitars here......

I have only put together one Warmouth guitar so far:

Love it! Nice one! Congrats on joining the cult~~~~
I would get cream knobs and switch tip to match the pups. Give us the specs, come on, don't tease!

Thanks! I know, the knobs definately stick out. I keep trying to get some on ebay, but I don't want to over pay. I gotta just go buy some.


It's a chambored mohagany body, compound radius mahogany neck with Vintage Vibe P90s. It howls and sustains for days...........  :headbang: I have it set up for "too low for slide, too high for regular fingering". I play in an original Rock band that jams, but I've been loving the Blues tone I get out of this guitar and I've been coaxing some really smokey 50's cranked amp tones out of it -just guitar straight into my Fender DRRI. Adding some gain pedals to the mix and it literally sustains forever. Hell, I love it with fuzz and a treble boost too!

I just recorded a little with it this past week, but it'll be a while before I have some clips.

I bet it weighs about 5 lbs at most! I gotta weight it. I laugh when people pick it up, they all have that reaction like they thought they were picking up something really heavy.
 
Is the middle pickup RW/RP?  My lead guitar player loves Strats and love P-90s.  I was just wondering if Warmoth could route the pickguard for those the other day.  I'll have to show this to him.
 
The P90s are from Vintage Vibe, and I have a rotatry switch that switches the polarity and the "wind" for each p'up.


It's crazy!!!  :cool01:

I know you can change series/parallel and phase with switches, but the magnet's position and polarity as well the direction of the pickup winding doesn't seem possible witout physically changing them.
 
Good point, this is for parallel and in series wiring. I have no idea why I was thinking polarity...  :tard:

It's a Fat-O-Caster switch:
