My finished "Inspired by Nuno" - Warmoth N4

[joe2000]

This is my finished "Inspired by Nuno Bettencourt" Warmoth N4. I was missing a Super Strat from my collection and hadn't come across anything with the specs I wanted. At least not in my price category. Looks great, plays great and sounds great. Extremely happy with the outcome of this. Took a bit of patience to get it right and eventually needed the help of a friend for the wiring and setup.

It's not intended to be an exact copy of Nuno's N4. More that I've always admired the aesthetics of the N4 and its tone(and of course Nuno's fingers). But the Bill Lawrence along with Floyd Rose definitely has that distinct tone which I was looking for. I'm used to lower output PAF style Fat Strats.

It's got a Wolfgang neck. Not sure why these arent that popular. Its very comfortable. It seems to be the least favourite of the necks from what I can gather.

Here are the specs;

Neck
-43mm R4 Nut
-Wolfgang Radius
-Oiled finish
-Rosewood on Birdseye maple
-Angled reversed headstock
-Gotoh mini tuners

Body
-Strat body
-Alder
-Oiled finish
-Original Floyd Rose

Electronics
-Seymour Duncan Jazz in Neck
-Bill Lawrence L500XL in bridge

Thanks for checking it out!  :guitaristgif:

Love it, man. Sweet, simple, and to the point. I played one of those Washburns a long time ago. Really nice guitar. And I'm pretty sure your W is better.
