I built (more accurately assembled) a Warmoth partscaster Strat & Tele both use your pickups; Blues Specials Nk/Mid Sp92 Bridge w/blender control you folks inspired me to do! T-style Blues Special Bridge + Mini Humbucker neck.. Fantastic 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
People used to tell me that I'd never get out what I put into a Warmoth build. I routed my Fender tele for two humbuckers, a single coil, two jacks, three switches, active unity gain preamp and a master switch to turn the onboard effects loop on/off. I'll never get money back on that one. I'd never sell it either but my work didn't raise the market price of that guitar. My three Warmoth builds cost me less in the end and started off with nicer wood, finishes and superlative fitment. I'll take a Warmoth over pretty much everything else these days. Plus, they are so friendly and nice to work with. Amazing company.
I've built two Warmoth guitars. I started with a Hybrid Tele. After building it, I fell in love with it and built matching 12 string. Next up is going to be a chambered strat body with an f hole and Lindy Fralin blues specials.
Beautiful. I'm trying to spec out and order something similar but in a gold top vibe. I prefer a flat back over the contoured strat cutouts, wondering if Warmoth offers a carved top with flat back? I also want mine hollow with an F hole, thinline style. Yours came out great!
Those are two very cool guitars. I dream of doing a Warmoth build, but two things keep it from happening: (1) Money and (2) Warmoth's list of options. Hopefully, one of these days I'll make it happen. One question, you used ebony fingerboards on both guitars. I've never played a guitar with an ebony board, just maple or rosewood. What is it you like about ebony and how does it differ in terms of tone from maple or rosewood?
@@JakeBaynes Cool. I was considering that Ebony could be an attractive visual substitute for a Maple fretboard, provided that they offer a comparable tone, unlike Rosewood.
Hi thanks for the video, been wondering where how I could end up with the neck I want. Question, do you buy the parts and assemble it yourself or will they build it for me. Thanks again!
Warmoth doesn’t do fretwork. If you want perfect frets you have to do it yourself or have someone else do it. I love doing my own fretwork. That’s how you add value to Warmoth parts.
