Hey thanks and I'm a proud new Warmoth customer. It turned out great! Well except I may have goofed on the neck profile, 59 Roundback a little too chunky, should have stuck with Standard thin.
Anyways the whole reason I even got a new guitar was to hopefully get something different than my Fender to escape that problem. So I spec'd everything with different material/hardware. And the same "problem" persists.
I started a thread at Strat-Talk that goes into everything I've tried. I've spent hours and hours working on my Fender, you name it I tried it basically. Pickup heights, removing pickups, all types of setups high action, low action etc., new saddles, new bridge, I could keep going. I really think my ear is getting too picky, I can't unhear it at the moment.
The best success has been a Cool Rails in the neck and/or a wound 3rd string. But I can't do a would 3rd it feels wrong.
So since I think I'm going to have to order a different neck anyway, the short scale sounds enticing. I like the pros of a shorter scale anyway I just didn't think about trying that for my first Warmoth. Most reading I've seen mentions the shorter scale as not as problematic regarding that out-of-tuneness along the G string. I'm probably gonna go for it but also hoping to get some insight beforehand.
