So, I was literally about to order a chambered strat body with two f-holes; rear routed alder with walnut top, vintage strat hardtail, one volume knob in the first tone slot, side jack, no pickup routes. I wanted to make my own version of that beautiful nylon string that aizenx posted: http://www.unofficialwarmoth.com/index.php?topic=11042.0. I just didn't want a pickguard.
Now, Warmoth has to use a guide hole, and normall ya pickup route gets rid of that. They offer an option for it to be filled, but only by obvious pieces of plastic. I understand that wood is difficult to match like that, but why not at least offer plugs of the same type? You could put a disclaimer that it won't match. Seriously, ugh. I even called and asked if they'd do it if I signed something to the effect that it wouldn't match, and still a big no.
