Here she is all done. I can't stop playing her, actually.
Closeout maple neck, SRV 6150. Closeout alder body, standard parts, SD 'california 50's strat set w/ a baseplate on the bridge pup. Standard controls. Homemade nitro yellow-brown burst with clear coat and buffed to matte-like finish with 0000 steel wool.
I actually think this is the best-playing warmoth I've had yet. I managed to get the action and setup just so perfect this time, the nut just right, it sounds great, holds a tune, lightweight. But mainly I like the SRV profile - out of the 5 or so contours I've tried, I'd say it's the best hands down. (thumbs-over?)
The friend who I originally made this for ended up with a pregnant wife and so it's got to go on the market, but dang I don't wanna sell her! Serious offers will be entertained, however. PM if interested.
As usual, I'm having problems uploading to the board - here they are on flickr:
