Which one do you like?  Plate 1 Shell

Plate 2 Turtle

I like the second one, it makes more sense than the first. 

I was oblivious to the fact that the Warmoth mascot was a turtle until I found the decal in the box with my neck.  It also sorta looks like someone took an icepick to the first one; are the grooves smooth or sharp rather?  I definitely WOULD NOT want one with sharp grooves.

The first one would be nicely engraved. (That's a turtle shell pattern in case it didn't make sense).  :icon_thumright:
 
Ahh yes! I like the second one best. The made in U.S.A. is wonderful. I wouldn't offer the first one but one that just said "Warmoth" would be good offering. In fact the first one with a random number would be fantastic! (no shell pattern)

Perhaps you could add one more to the category for voting. "Warmoth, Made in U.S.A, random ##"

-TT-
 
I don't care for the first one at all. That second one is really cool though.
 
Call me crazy, I like the first one a lot. LOVE the random serial # idea.

I know this'll draw fire, but I've never been fond of the warmoth turtle. Don't get me wrong, turtles are the s***. But the warmoth turtle as is seems kinda silly looking to me - he doesn't do justice to the awesomeness that is turtledom.

Sorry guys.

(Regardless of what design might be chosen, I definitely want one of these things)
 
I would prefer the first one without the shell, but I will take the second one if those are my only choices.
 
^ ditto ^

The shell one is ok but you'd have to know that Warmoth's mascot if a turtle to get it, else it would just look wierd. The second idea is better. I like the turtle (and turtles in general) but I agree with the earlier post about it looking rather silly for certain guitars.
 
Also, if you would like to design a super cool neck plate for Warmoth, we'd love to see more ideas!  :icon_thumright:
 
I'd love something with a textured background/stamped edge like my Jackson neckplate but with "Warmoth", "Made In U.S.A", and the serial on it.

I like them both.  It'd be cool if there was a place for the owner to stamp a serial number or initals.
 
I like the first Shell plate, but without the shell pattern, being into pretty plain but quality designs, I dig the Warmoth name and design of the letters,especially how the m and h in Warmoth come to a sharp point, that and the Fat looking W make it a pretty tough looking name, I also like how the made in the U.S.A. is right below it in the first design, but I have to agree the shell pattern should be an option, as alot of us are older guys or just like plainer designs, as it looks classier, from a less is more = Quality stand point.

Why exactly is the Turtle the Warmoth symbol????  If theres a story to it, maybe it should be mentioned somewhere on the front page of the home page????? 

Im not much for Headstock art, though the new Gold and metal letters looks pretty sharp, especially on a gib style or Warmoth headstock where they can be placed in the middle like Greg has on his No. 1, that looks great, a strat though, is hard to place being that it has a non uniform head shape, but I wouldn't mind a simple neck plate design; that would be something I would use.

I think serial numbers would be cool, maybe even a series no. for particular body models????, kind of a novel Warmoth owners club kinda thing, where a Warmoth guy would know its a plate for a strat or a V.I.P., or a LP  but that would be more involved obviously, and be more work for someone in the shop, ( As if you guy's don't have enough to do ! ) hahahahaahahha..........just thoughts........ :laughing7:

I like U9's jackson plate Idea, maybe put a full turtle shell viewed from the Top as the texture inside the border, then with the Warmoth , made in U.S.A. like the first shell plate words are placed,superimposed over the top of the shell, and then a serial no. centered a few spaces down from the Made in U.S.A.????
 
How about a basic plate that simply has the cool font Warmoth logo, no Turtle, and Made in the U.S.A.?  Dignified, yet cool.  Similar to some Fender neck plates of the past (my early American Standard neck plate is simply Fender diagonally stamped).  I like the idea of random numbering the neck plates, but what about an upcharge for a serial number of the customer's choosing?

That would mean we'd have to engrave. Not sure if want to get into metal working.
 
id really like the first one without the tortious pattern in it . just a great big warmoth  with a little  {  made in usa } it would be classy at least i think so
 
I prefer the turtle.

For my Warmoth strat I ordered a satin stainless steel neck plate with a serial # of my choice, it's a nice personal touch and satin looks cooler to me.
