Hey @aarontunes thanks for the shout out. I got mine from Dan as well, but haven't made any progress on the dinkycaster. There's several tweaks I want to do including some on the pickguard, but I'm feeling inspired!

And just so ya know, my name is Scott Deeg (last name said like egg). Amateur luthier, bedroom hacker and solid 3rd rate player, aspiring blues jam participant, and Warmoth fan-boi.

And my first concert was The Tubes at the Sacramento, CA fair grounds sometime around 1984.

Nice! I wondered if you had gotten one for yourself. Glad you did.

I didn't use your real name in the video because some people don't want that. I always stick to forum names.

Indeed! Whatever they're paying you, Aaron, they are getting more than their money's worth.

I thought you were gonna say "Whatever they're paying you, I can double it..."

 

[bagman67]

If I could truthfully say that, I would not be typing these words on a work computer.

Thanks for the kind words, but there are about 65 other people here working their butts off too. I'm just the only one dumb enough to put myself out there for public scrutiny.

It's because you are the handsome "face" man!

Really nicely done. Heavily changes the aesthetic of the guitar in a good way.

Did you hear that @sdeeg??

Looks amazing - the dinkycaster never really did it for me but this changes everything. Any chance Warmoth would make this a standard offering?

My first concert was Iron Maiden 1983

Definitely the best policy. And I appreciate it.

Teamwork makes the dream work!

No, but you can get one from MojoAxe....provided you have a P90 in the neck! (Or no neck pickup at all.)

The real issue is the P90 cutout in the bridge. I had Dan at MojoAxe remove the cutout for the neck pup which I'll route myself to fit the TV Jones Classic I'll be putting in, but I didn't think about the bridge pup cutout which looks wide. That's something for me to tweak tho so Aaron and I will slightly different versions of the base design.
