@TonyFlyingSquirrel Amazing guitar with an amazing history - so interesting!
I actually heard ”Warmoth” at the 11:35 mark, but maybe that was because we are in different time zones
Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing!

There's also the connection with Boogie.

The Origin of the Warmoth Turtle

If you have ever purchased a Warmoth guitar or bass neck, you have no doubt noticed the little cartoon turtle brand on the heel. You’ve probably seen him in ads and on our website as well. The turtle has been around since Warmoth’s beginning. To discover his origin we must journey back to a time...

In case you have not seen it, here is a video I produced a few years ago with a more complete history of Boogie Bodies/Warmoth. Lynn Ellsworth was only producing bodies before partnering with Ken's dad Jim to form Boogie Bodies. It was Jim who provided the tooling necessary to start making necks. As I understand it Ken was in charge of the neck department, so he almost certainly was personally involved in creating those EVH necks.

Warmoth and Boogie Bodies never existed at the same time. Warmoth was born immediately after the demise of Boogie Bodies.
