Soon to be built by my local tech and luthier Phil D'Angelo..just arrived today after a 10 week build time.
I'm new to the forum and to Warmoth, but I''m looking forward to finally having a high end guitar made to my specs.
The quality seems to be awesome based on what came out of the box today...I'll post all the details once I have this beauty completed.

We demand specs!

Looks to be Flame maple 7/8ths neck with white bound rosewood fretboard.
7/8ths Strat HSS Flame maple cap, tiger eye finish with natural masked binding, recessed Wilkinson bridge, Tusq XL nut

Tell us more!  What back profile? What are the frets? What's the core body wood? Tuners? What pups are going in it?!

On the upside, it'll keep me from wanting to steal it... as fast.
 
Gold hardware can be awesome for he right guitar. I think it'll look great on yours  :icon_thumright:

Sometimes though, it just doesn't work. I have a BK Strat and a BK J-Bass, both with a tobacco burst finish. Gold looks GREAT (in my opinion) on the Strat, but pretty awful on the J-Bass  :dontknow: Anyway, congrats on the new guitar! I'm sure you'll love it when it's all done and strung up.  :headbang:

Be sure to keep us updated with pics along the way!
 
You only have 2 posts and I'm already jealous!

I'm really looking forward to seeing this one completed.
