July Guitar/Bass of the Month Entree: WARMOTH finish

[jimh]

Guess I'll chuck mine in this time too.

8-Ball Strat

Warmoth did that finish??? cooooooollllll  ccasion14:

Yep.  Saw one like it on the showcase YEARS ago. Wasnt in a position to bu at the time (in fact, I didn't know anything about building guitars then), but the 8-Ball stuck in my mind.
Nov 2007 I thought about building a Strat and Warmoth was my first choice headbang, so I asked if they could still do the graphic.  Spike said they still had the template, and so it shouldnt be a problem. 
Jan 2008, this arrived on my desk at work, along with the neck. And the rest, as they say.......

I really really like that 8 ball - I think I need to sell off some stuff and get me a strat!


...can't believe I just said that...

I have no chance with Stormbringer and DBU in the race,
but whatever... I really really fell in love with this body when I first saw it in the show case.. I think its way better looking than in the pics!

 

[smavridis]

Heres mine

 

[Soylent]

+1 to Marko's.. it is much better looking in person.  :hello2:

 

[jimh]

+1 to Marko's.. it is much better looking in person.  :hello2:

You have to say that, cos you work with him!  :binkybaby:

 

[m4rk0]

and because I am much bigger than him!

 

[Soylent]

OR... because I've played it and mentioned more than once how much I like the finish.  :dontknow:

 

[mayfly]

Work politics and toadyism aside, I still think that 8-ball strat is killer.  It's so unique!

... perhaps not for long though....  :icon_jokercolor:
