This is my second warmoth guitar, the first one I built back in 1999 or so. The first one was just cheapo parts from whatever they called the showcase back then; this one is primo parts I ordered specifically. These are some pretty lousy pictures I squeezed out tonight with bad lighting; I hope to get some better ones in the near future. Some small matters still need attending to - the nut needs some work, and the truss rod and string height need finessing.
First I bought the neck - angled strat, mahogany back with a black ebony, graphtek nut, gold 6100 frets, no inlays.
The body is chambered mahogany, with a select quilt maple top, contoured neck heel, rear routed, green dye finish.
Hardware was picked to match the neck - gold on black. Sperzel locking tuners, wilkinson bridge (oddly enough, I seem to have another almost the same as this one, except with black saddles on gold mounting). Pickups are Dimarzio Air Norton in the neck position, and a Tone Zone by the bridge. Wiring is from one of the standard Dimarzio wiring charts - it's a 5 way switch, the 2 and 4 position are single coils from both pickups. Sounds fabulous!
