Hey guys, so i've been thinking about getting the whole deal from Warmoth for my next guitar (after the SL2H comes in, whenever that is) and i have a whole ton of questions. For reading and possibly answering ease, i will number them:
1. How do i get them to paint the body and neck that i select? Obviously they do that, but i don't see a place for it on the order form so i'm a tad confused
2. I'm a lefty, and i want this one to have a reverse headstock. Since they dont offer a reverse lefty per se, i was wondering if i could simply buy a righty neck and stick it on the lefty body. Is there anything that would prevent that in the neck pocket, etc? (i know the side dots would be on the wrong side)
3. I've heard from some people that they don't drill anything for screw holes, such as the ones to attach the tuning pegs. They drill the hole that the peg goes through, but nothing for the screws. Is this true?
4. I'd like the neck to be finished black, along with the body and headstock. In the "matching neck and body colours" section of the neck finishes page, it says that the body and neck must be made of the same wood. For transparent finishes, that makes sense, but would that apply for solid colours? I wouldn't think so, but I'm new to this
5. To do with the pickguards, i dont see an option for a "lefty pickguard" (i know, this again right?), so i was wondering if the pearl ones are the same on both sides, or does it have a duller possibly blank backside? Seeing as how i'd have to flip it backwards and all....
6. On the subject of pickguards; since the 24 fret extension eliminates the neck pickup, can i get a pickguard with a hum in the bridge and an angled middle pickup? I'm not sure how far "you can mix any of these options" goes.
That's all I can think of right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
