Been using Warmoth parts for a while to constantly keep changing my guitars... and finally decided to post pictures of my recent build. I might have a gone a little overboard on that one...
It started when Warmoth re-stocked their showcase with 2-piece ebony necks this summer.
I was aiming for an all-black Strat, but I let the idea sit for several months, it's only last month that a red chambered Strat body showed up in the showcase and that seemed like a good match for the neck.
Hardware is a mix of ruthenium (tuner, strap locks) and cosmo black (neck + audio plates, Wilkinson bridge), both finishes turned out to be pain to locate but overall I really like the look of those parts.
I thought about getting Lace Duallys + middle Chrome Dome pickups but was too impatient to complete the build and found SD P-Rails triple shot humbuckers and Dimarizo 61 pickup in local shops. The array of tone configurations is fairly overwhelming but I end up mostly using the series, P90, or parallel configuration of the P-Rails.
Now, let's hope I don't come up with another build idea for those bocote necks they recently put in the showcase....
