@aarontunes any chance you know if a gotoh 510 will fit the wilkinson route? What about the semi recessed?

They are supposedly interchangeable, but I have not tested it and cannot make any promises. The rout diagrams and dimension are all on this page: https://warmoth.com/guitar-bridge-routs

If you look at the dimensions there they are slightly different, as is the routing for the trem block. There is a good chance you'll have to do some work to make a 510 fit.

Ugh, you guys kept dropping the price. White korina Strat body coming my way, I did NOT need another project!

I had it in my cart and thought better of it! Not because it isn't awesome though!

 

[bonesofwrath]

I'm between jobs at the moment. Thanks guys for snatching up the irresistibles before I get a chance to see em.

I must resist ....

 

[bonesofwrath]

I'm counting on you Rick!

That gecko wide 5 neck is lookin mighty nice to me. Price is beginning to approach consideration territory.

You would have a visible gap with a 510 in a Wilkinson rout.

Well, THAT was brutal. Just got a $50 snaked out from under me during address validation!

 

[mayfly]

oops. Maybe for the best

It makes it easier to resist because I still haven't finished my current project, however, if I had, then I'd be deep into this pool, 'cause the water looks fine!

I still haven't seen one of these in the wild - even ones I didn't want. Is there a time they drop? Does sorting by showcase price include the $50 price?

what was todays. I have been refreshing every 15 minutes or so and saw a price drop but no $50 one.

Seems random. I've seen two so far, the first I didn't want, and the second (today) that I was just about to hit when someone else grabbed it.

And yes, sorting by price (the shortcut I shared above) will show them. That's how I found both.

It was a one-piece alder Tele.

I have noticed that "showcase price" is the one to sort by. There a cheaper ones than found just sorting by "price"

Well, I had no intention of building a J bass, but $150 screamin' deal for a chambered white korina j bass body w/ maple laminated top felt irresponsible not to buy since it would have been over $400 all day to order one w/ the builder tool. It definitely hit the "fomo nerve" which I believe is somewhere beside the vagus nerve.

Rant: Just sold a Sire V5R that I absolutely hated so it seems appropriate that I build one that doesn't have a "roasted neck" with the stability of balsa completely drenched in darkening dye. Just looking at that neck would cause it to bow an extra 0.05" either way. Arrived with 5 lifting/unseated frets, and after doing allll the remediation work, I still couldn't get the action low enough for me even with a full leveling- there was definitely a temperamental hump. I'm still irritated about that. Still thought it was a tree. Dang shame too because the rolled fretboard edges were excellent. The P5 I have is stable as can be, by comparison. When life gives you lemons, I guess....


TL;DR yet another build incoming.
