The neck is perfect, but the body present some minor flaws just near the tremolo cavity and near the bridge routing: the wood isn't chipped, but the finish went off.
I don't care at all ;)


Thank you Warmoth!!!!!!!!!  :rock-on:

lookin good!
do I see correctly that you don't have any inlays? in that case, you will have such a clean look!!
have you decided on the pg yet?

Oh man! that's nice!! Very clean.

Yeah, h'bout a white 3 layer pickguard, and white pickup covers and white knobs with black numbering.

I think I may see some blurry dots at 3,5,7..... It would be really clean without inlays.

Damn, it sound pretty good even unplugged!

The neck is a dream, the best I ever played. Ebony is smooth and wenge feel great!.

The area closer to the headstock is perfect, no string buzzing at all.
At the 10th fret the lower string choke, and after the 12 fret, some fret chokes the strings when strummed hard.
It probably need some fret levelling/dressing.


I will install some handmade pups, made in italy, called I-SPIRA.
Black pickup and knobs with white pickguard ala blackmore.

warmoth necks tend to come pretty level but it's never a bad idea to relevel it but to me it sounds like the truss rod is a bit loose. fret a string at the first and last fret. is there a gap between the string and fretboard around the 9th fret? how big?

oh and sweet guitar. white instruments are soooo classy, maybe white for my next warmoth.

Wow, man there is something very appealing to me about the contrast of white body/dark neck that you have got going on there.  Someone else on this board had used those pickups and had great things to say about them.  Should be one rocking Strat man!

that clean dark/white contrasted look was exactly what I was going for with my Ash/Wenge Strat..

as much as I love wood grain, I am starting to think that solid white would have been a better choice..

Any fan of Blackmore is cool in my book. That's a classy looking guitar, mister.
