Warmoth offers angled humbucker now?

[Cederick]

I saw it in the body options and I wonder if thats really true?  :turtle:

Would be so cool to make something like this!

(I'm turning 30 in just a couple of years and I wanna get myself parts for a couple of guitar builds as a present for myself  :glasses10: )

That's been there for years.
Bridge Position Only.

 

[Cederick]

I can't remember finding it when I ordered my first Warmoth about 5 years ago which basically was meant to be exactly like that Gunslinger... and not after that either... not until now?

I know I've found it on pickguards, becaause I have ordered a pickguard with angled humbucker once

 

[fdesalvo]

Ced - that is DEAD SEXY

 

[PJ Potamus]

Yes! Angled Humbuckers (Bridge position only) were added recently to most rear rout bodies. Previously one could only get angled Hums on an S-Pickguard. Enjoy!

I can see chartreuse in my future.

I can see chartreuse in my future.

Do it! In satin! Do it now.

Cheers!

Yeah I was sure I haven't seen it before!

Great feature!

Not that I couldn't rout for an angled humbucker myself; but I still prefer to skip all that stuff, and get right to the assembling instead  :icon_biggrin:

How bout Charcuterie?

How about Chartreuse AND Charcuterie? Booze and Bacon, yum............

:icon_thumright:

(Although it is a shame to refer to Chartreuse as "booze"...)

Kennith Horne: Your Butcher?

Julian (or is it Sandy?): You think so? Must be the way I've had my hair done.

I aspire to have Horne-esque eyebrows once I'm of sufficient age.

What would be cooler than the angled humbucker (as pictured in the original post) would be the angled humbucker that is found in the Gibson Nighthawk.  Seymour Duncan offers a couple of varieties in that style, and it looks a ton better.

 

[Logrinn]

I agree. This looks much cooler than an angled humbucker:

Aalthough it's angled the wrong way. The polepieces over the low strings should be closer to the bridge not further away:

 

[Cederick]

Well, I dont share that opinion.

I do think Nighthawks looks cool, and they really fit with that kind of humbucker

But for an 80s style superstrat it would look weird. In my opininon that is  :toothy12:

 

[swarfrat]

Reverse angled is da bomb. Tighten up the lower wound strings and sweeten up the plain singles, instead of exaggerating the difference.

I'm not in the market for new guitars at this point, but if they had a reverse angled neck strat pickup, I might be tempted to build one of these (slanted the other way of course)

You said it!  :icon_thumright:

And dangit but that fire crackle would be totally awesome with bloody basin jasper.
