Damnnn,
Good to see a purple dye so up close and personal,

 

[fdesalvo]

I've got one coming that's very similar - same headstock setup too!  I looooove the look of this one!

Nice!  I'd like a guitar almost exactly like that, except with twin humbuckers and no neck tilt.

If you wanna play Rock & Roll, you gotta have PURPLE in the band. Many thanks to Doug for the custom neckplate and truss rod cover. Just FYI, the neckplates fit perfectly in our NP1P neck plate pads. I will have more photos up next week. Body and neck are getting base coated today. It's very hard to see them every day and not be able to 'have' them yet!

Updated Body Pics. Now just needs to go in for a final buffing. Neck pics coming soon.

As the owner of a Warmoth carved-top telecaster body in the purple family, I'd like to congratulate you on your entry upon this sacred province, and encourage you to embrace your newfound violet tendencies.


Rock on.

......and encourage you to embrace your newfound violet tendencies.

Thank-you very much Bagman67. Let me just say that I am finally, after great personal growth, ready to embrace my violet tendencies in a very public way. I was the owner of a purple dye Warmoth Strat in the near past. I tended to keep it in it's gigbag and only play it in the darkest and dingiest of bars and clubs. But I HAVE GROWN. There is NO SHAME in being a Purplist. My spell check just now told me (and oh, it made my blood boil) that Purplist is NOT A WORD!! I am here to say, "NO MORE!" No more playing it in the basement, the bedroom, or the bathroom. Bring that Purple son of a guitar out into the light. Play it in the living room, the kitchen, even the front yard! I AM A PURPLIST and I AM PROUD. There comes a time in every boy's life when he gets a true sense of who he is. I am a guitarist......I am a keyboardist.......I am a photographer.......but first and foremost I AM A PURPLIST!!

Just saw this posted on Warmoth's facebook page today... very very nice!

Well, now I know what kind of top and finish I'm going to have to get for my next build. Been agonising over trans purple again (too pink) or candy purple (not fond of metallics). 'Spose it'll have to be a dye top, 'cause that looks perfect. Very, very nice.
