need help hoping to make a new lp body guitar with a warmoth neck and need to know the basic hardware that need to get it running plz help  :icon_tongue:
 
Really depends if you're going to get the neck/body finished or are finishing it yourself.

I'm assuming you're using a 2 humbucker, 2 vol/2 tone standard setup on this and the body & neck are finished (if neck finish is required)
Tuning machines
Neck plate
4 Neck screws
2 Strap Buttons
Bridge (TOM/STP is common for LP bodies)
4 potentiometers
4 vol/tone knobs
2 pickups
3 way pup selector
2 pup rings
wiring...wires
output jack
6? misc screws for control plates on back

That's the best I could do with the information given. Others can chime in if I have forgotten something.
 
thanks sorry but im super new to building if someone could tell me the funtions of each part or any suggestions for some
trying to get seymour duncan invader pickups have 2volume/2tone controls 24 fret extension rear rout 7/8" jack hole
 
Okay.  Make sure the body you order has the 24 fret Neck Pickup position moved, or it'll interfere with your pickup.

Tuning machines - hold the strings at the neck end, and provide tuning capability
Neck plate - holds the neck onto the body
4 Neck screws - holds the neck onto the body
2 Strap Buttons - so you can use a guitar strap
Bridge (TOM/STP is common for LP bodies) - the other end of your strings lives here
4 potentiometers - the things that your knobs control (volume, tone) can make them louder, quiter, etc.
4 vol/tone knobs - what your fingers touch to manipulate the potentiometers
2 pickups - i hope you know what pickups are
3 way pup selector - chooses between what pickups are 'on'
2 pup rings - to hold the pickups onto the body
wiring...wires - to make all the electronics work
output jack - so you can plug in a cable
6? misc screws for control plates on back - to hold the covers on
