    I've been around here quite a while now. Put together several nice guitars. Love 'em all. With the exception of the few that I've assembled for friends, all of my Warmoths have come out of the showcase. 1st a neck then a body to fit. Or find a nice body then wait for the right neck to come...

    Good time to buy UK made parts. Including but not limited to Bareknuckle Pickups

    Just wanted to say that do to the current exchange rate between the US buck & UK pound NOW is a good time to be looking at Bareknuckle pickups. Current rates put BKPs in the same price range as Seymour Duncans. I'm not getting into the question whether one is better than the other, only that...

    Mooncaster mods

    I'd like to see Warmoth make Mooncasters available with a center block. It would cut down on feedback and allow for many more bridge options.

    ROSE

    Time to get off my duff and start a winter project. Last winter I got caught up in the moment and made one of those 'unbelievable ebay buys' Solid rosewood tele, way cheaper than I could stand. Like most ebay bodies I've bought, not everything worked out as planned. Turned out the center piece...

    Pickup Soldering Protection

    I did a search and did not find any post covering this. If I'm being redundent, Sorry. I'm always afraid of damaging the finish when I change pickups. I've never really hurt a guitar but I have come smokin' close a couple of times. Recently my wife bought a product from QVC that seems to be...
