Just got my custom neck from Doug at Soulmate Guitars on Friday. Its for an upcoming Warmoth Soloist project which is at week 6 at warmoth. So hopefully an email in the next couple of weeks and it should be on its way. Either way, I have this lovely piece of work to caress and stare at for a few weeks. I actually found Doug upon recommendations from people on this forum, so thanks very much to everyone. I am beyond happy with how everything turned out. Exactly how I had imagined things in my head. I wanted to try a few things on this that are not offered by Warmoth (custom headstock, laminate construction, wood binding, black underlaminate as accent). I wanted the binding and underlaminate to match up with my Soloist which has a quilt top/masked binding/black laminate stripe. Can't wait to get the neck and body together. Hopefully a match.
Here are the specs
Flame curly maple with purpleheart and wenge laminates, bolt on neck to fit warmoth body (traditional strat heel)
25.5” scale, 1 11/16” nut width,22-frets
Reverse inline 6 headstock, Nut prep shelf for Floyd Rose locking nut,Jet Black Ebony Fretboard
NO fret board markers, Black side dot markers
Curly Maple Wood Binding with black underlaminate
16' straight neck radius, thin D profile
I know that you of all groups can appreciate some nice wood porn. Enjoy
