Hi guys i bought a warmoth vintage modern for my stratocaster it was ok when it arrived and fitted my guitar well. But now after these few months of playing its bow is not uniform any longer, because the string relief is bigger on the side of the 1st
string (top E string) and smaller on the side of the 6st string (lowE). I brought it to my guitar technician to be checked, but no truss rod regulation was possible because even if he tightens the truss rod, I still get a flatter part of the neck on the low E string, and the other one is always more bent. I wrot an e-mail to Warmoth but no one answers me :(
Any one have my same problem? is it possibile to fix it?
 
It sounds like the guitar neck twisted or warped.  What kind of finish was on the neck?  I am surprised Warmoth did not get back to you.  They are very good in the customer service department.  I try contacting them again.  There isn't a good way of fixing that kind of problem.
 
I would try contacting Warmoth again.  They do great work and definitely warranty their work as well.
