Hey all, my first post here, but was doing plenty of lurking before to pick up various tips and tricks
I present to you my first Warmoth build, started as an unfinished Velocity black korina body (with control cavity and pickup routs omitted) and a canary Warhead 25.5" neck with canary fretboard.
I decided to do things differently and went with a front-route & pickguard after being inspired by designs like the PRS Mira and Starla. The electronics are PRS Starla humbuckers and the toggle switch is for a single-coil tap. I cut the pickguard myself as well. After routing, I stained the body green with General Finishes' Green Wood Dye and clear coated with 9 coats of TruOil (wet sanded after 5th coat and thin coats there on after).
Here's an imgur album of the various stages: http://imgur.com/a/9Zbuz
