    Black Korina VIP

    My stuff arrived! Little story on the top wood, for anyone who noticed my posts in the black korina thread. I had originally included a photo of the top that was similar to the one I'd ordered, since I forgot to keep one. Then, I replaced it with a picture of my actual top on order when Warmoth...

    Starting out virtual

    I've got an order in at Warmoth but need to wait until they can get back to work, so I've been mocking up the next project. It's a VIP body, black korina with a unique choice black korina lam top and black binding. The neck is quarter sawn maple, with a black ebony fretboard, reverse...

    Short scale P

    Another bass I recently finished, this is my short scale P bass with PJ pickups. The body is roasted swamp ash which I finished with only a couple light coats of tung oil, which was then gone over with a 000-steel-wool-equivalent Scotchbrite pad to just bring out a bit of sheen. The neck is a...

    Short scale Z

    Here's a Z I completed a while back. Both the body and neck were showcase items; it's a satin black alder short scale Z body with a wenge/wenge short scale Warmoth neck. I ordered it with dual MM pickup routs, a Schaler 463 bridge, SS6100 frets, a standard corian nut and Gotoh GB707 tuners...

    Pickup rings for VIP?

    I’ve got a VIP carved top on order (TOM/STP, angled pocket) and was just wondering if those bodies take flat or curved pickup rings. Also, does a tall ring work for the bridge or can I get away with a low ring? Thanks for any help.

    The Dreamsite build

    No turning back now, I guess! This is a re-imagined build of my old guitar, The Dumpsite (pic in my profile). It's named so since it's gone through many, many changes, with me just dumping whatever stuff I had laying around into it, over the years. It's had about 5 different bridges /...

    Les Tele? Telepaul?

    My new build parts are here, and I've run into a problem! The planned double cutaway LP shape was to duplicate a guitar I've had since I was a teen, with some modern updates. Since it is a three humbucker design, I planned to do that with the new one, and wanted a guitar blank to cut the shape...

    Many Firsts

    First time really reading this forum, first post, first Warmoth build, and the first picture I took of it. It's also my first Strat style guitar, first tremolo, first free float setup, first active pickups, etc. =) After a false start with a body from another supplier I came to Warmoth for the...
