Is John aka JuanitoBurrito still working at Warmoth?

He hasn't been on for ages, and I wanted to ask him about an LP Studio he built. He had an old thread but the pictues are all gone, I recall it was black with lots of chrome like with the pickup rings and switch tip.

I have a new all-black Warmoth LP studio and bought chrome pieces too, and for some reason I'd forgotten his was an LP he built and not a VIP until I found an old message. Would like to get another look at what he did so maybe as to not completely steal his setup when I assemble everything, or at least apologize if I do lol. Thanks

He was about 2 weeks behind me leaving last year, he's still in the area though.

Couldn't hurt to ask, thanks Tony.

The economy forced a layoff of a few people last May, I was one of them.  
I totally understand, it happens, and I have nothing but love for the Warmoth (Ken+ family), staff, and product.
I've been a customer since 1981, and will remain one faithfully moving forward as well.

I'm now at World Vision's U.S. headquarters in Federal Way, Wa. in Donor Contact Services (the non-profit equivalent of customer service) and I absolutely love doing what I do.  I've passed the level 2 of my position working toward #3, then eventually on to U.S. Programs working specifically toward providing relief to my own native people on the reservations.  We have 2 pilot programs right now going on, one at Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, and one at the Navajo Nation in New Mexico.   Currently, Pine Ridge has the highest poverty level in the Western Hemisphere 2nd only to Haiti.

That's where my heart is and I know that what I do is making a difference to make the world a better place.

Thanks for asking.

Real unfortunate Tony, sorry. My better half is a construction estimator and has been at extreme risk of layoff for a while now, and not long before that I had some real concerns. Good luck

Tony, sounds like Warmoth may have been more fun but this is ultimately more rewarding. I really hope you accomplish what you're working on.
