new here, first Warmoth order on the way

[mrpinter]

The action is just fine - good pro setup. I'm sure your tech at Carvin is good, but I don't feel any need to go anywhere else but to Mikey at TrueTone Music. I doubt they'd do much better than $150 for complete assembly and setup and intonation. And he took out the pickups we used out of another guitar for me, didn't charge for it, and did that while I waited. I'm happy with them.

Any chance we could get a pic of that action?

 

[mrpinter]

Do you mean a pic showing how high it is? Otherwise I don't understand the question. Right now I just have the camera in my cell phone, and that won't do a very good job of it. But I'll try.

 

[JamesL]

That's what I meant, yes. I was just curious to see. I'd like to see the action on some other warmoth's as well.

 

[mrpinter]

OK, here's the best pic I could do (the action could possibly be a little lower, but it's just about as high as my other elec. guitars, and plays easily with the .10 - .48 strings I have on it):

Wow.. That's effing amazing!  :icon_thumright:

Thanks! haha

I'm assuming it plays like a dream? It sure looks like it!  :icon_biggrin:

 

[mrpinter]

Yeah it plays really well. As good as my Hamer T-62, and that's always been my gold standard. It could easily handle a set of 11's, but I'm good with the set of Thomastik-Infeld Blues Sliders on it now.

This is one "first project" to be proud of! That geeetar looks great!

Cool, I saw that on the Seymour Duncan forum yesterday and tried to find it in the gallery here
I love it, pretty sure thinline will be my next build.
