Is anyone else as stoked about the Meadowhawk as me?

[Hagwood]

And.....there it is! All fixed now.

This is exactly why we have begun making new products live a couple days before announcing them. Gives us a chance two limber up before the big game starts.

Of course, UW members always get advanced presale.

Perfect ! You da Man Aarron !!! The only thing I see now is the meadowhawk inlay option is missing for the neck custom builder.

And I’m assuming the bodies won’t have the option the limited release had with the partial maple cap?

Naw, it's there:

Ok Hodgo, let's go!

I'm already designing one. Too bad I have a Strat body on the way to do my first of my vintage colors series.......

From the custom Meadowhawk neck page with the visualizer it looks like you can get

*any inlay in any material you want
*luminlay dots on 24 fret necks
*24 fret necks as opposed to the 24 fret overhang

I’m assuming this is all a pre-release bug and it’s going to be the same as the strat neck?

Yep, essentially.

Exactly the same as a Vortex neck would be more accurate, since the Meadowhawk is Tiltback construction.

I'm not seeing any of those bugs your are mentioning. Perhaps your browser cache is being slow to update.

I like the Meadowhawk headstock and could see it working well on other body shapes.

Wow...."IT" has arrived...awesome.

Curious about the Meadowhawk neck. Is the Tiltback angle the same as something like the Vortex, less angled or more angled?

 

[ThisIsHuhWow404]

If someone planned on getting a Meadowhawk body with a trem, would it make more sense to get the Strat or Warhead neck over the Meadowhawk neck due to the tiltback design?

Exactly the same as all our other Tiltbacks.

No, it wouldn't. With any straight headstock you will have to use a string tree on a least two of the strings, if not four, to achieve the same angle behind the nut anyway.

IMO a Tiltback it actually better because you automatically get the back angle you need without having to introduce another friction point along the string's path. If you're talking a locking trem like a Floyd, you won't have to use the bar string retainer behind the nut either.

Ok Hodgo, let's go!

I should probably have made a decision or two in anticipation of this release given how much I’ve been beating the drum

But I am paralyzed! Too many options.

Really great prices on the in stock Meadowhawks! Too bad none of them are left-handed.

Damn you Warmoth! You've ruined my plans for a Strat replacement. Well, there's nothing for it so I've got one on order. Picked one of the lightest Showcase bodies and will outfit it with TV Jones T90s. Now I have 2 guitars to anxiously wait for!!!

 

[Spud]

I am certainly no linguist, but I feel like "Hodgo" is a synonym for "Non-Starter"

I start just fine, it’s the finishing that kills me

I’m with ya, have a Strat Replacement on the way to paint in vintage Surf Green, but already putting a Meadowhawk together in the builder. Warmoth, you’re killin me !!!

 

[Scab Pickens]

I'm glad I've "already got one" . I love the Meadowhawk body shape! For this particular one, I think I also like the Warhead neck more, too ...

 

[WrongPickguard]

Probably the coolest looking guitar from Warmoth now. I'll have to start coming up with excuses on why I need a new guitar.

By the way, does anyone have any idea why this and the dinkycaster can't be chambered? Is it the odd shape? Would that make them too light?
