Hello everyone, :turtle:
Just wanted to introduce myself on here. I'm new to this forum and to forum-ing in general. In fact, most of the time in the past when I entered forum communities for random questions on cars, software, etc., my posts got ignored or flamed. So this time, I am doing it different; entering into the community instead of being a random poster.
Knowing that I have a bit of an obsessive personality.. where I tend to obsess over things a bit much until I accomplish them, I figured it was time to obsess again on some gear as it is a much less stressful obsession than building up my law firm. (which has taken me out of the guitar world for a couple years now).
Now, I want a Mooncaster. I had a PRS in the past and loved it, but in my recording days I sold it for a Les Paul. I also played a friends CS-336 a few years back and loved it. Last year, I saw John Mayer with Dead & Co. and am obsessed with his Super Eagle. However, I have a 10 month old baby to send to college in 17 years and 2 months, so $10k on a guitar is not a great move. Therefore, I want to build a Mooncaster and mimic the electronics of the Super Eagle.
So I have a few questions for the community:
1. Would Warmoth entertain custom request for the body below? If I requested routing for an additional Narrowfield pickup in the middle?
2. What about Active Mods? There is no option here for a battery Hole. Would that ruin the integrity of this type of semi hollow/chambered body?
3. Has anyone seen a wiring diagram for the Super Eagle? I cant find one on PRS's site so I cant figure out exactly what parts and mods are even on there.
4. For those who know these guitars and Warmoth, what problems do you foresee?
