    Are prices on the W site including tax ?

    Reason I'm asking is because I'm about to place an order from Europe. In that case I believe I don't have to pay U.S. taxes which will later be applied by customs in Europe. Just trying to get an average figure of how much I'll have to pay in total... Thanks !

    Anyone ever purchased a full set of 6L Schaller tuners from W ?

    Reason I'm asking is because Warmoth sells the Schaller Locking Tuners separately. I've bought complete sets before (years ago, not from Warmoth) and a whole set of 6L tuners comes staggered. How is that handled by Warmoth ? Do they send out individually staggered tuners ? Do you get a...

    Yet another Gotoh Sideadjuster question

    Maybe someone can help... In the 'manual' it says: Tighten the slotted heel-adjust nut until the fingerboard is perfectly flat I've set up necks before, but always with strings on, for final adjustments. What's the nest way to get the neck perfectly flat in an 'un-stringed' and from the body...

    Need some help with color decision

    Hi guys ! Need some help deciding which color to go for . Here's the 'inspiration: http://www.j-guitar.com/sp/sea/view_detail/s10626398.html Until recently Warmoth sort of made it easy. They only offered Sonic Blue. I'm going full custom because of matching headstock and a few other...

    D-Long Volume Hole in pickguard ?

    Maybe I had overlooked it before, but I just saw that Warmoth offers a 'D-Long Volume Hole' option for pickguards. Has anyone done that ? I'd need a Strat pickguard, 5 way switch in normal position, one volume in position 1, nothing in 2 and a mini toggle in position 3. Does the 'D-Long'...

    Anyone using a Gotoh Floyd Rose ?

    Hi Guys ! Don't mean to start a discussion about which one is better... Simply would like to know if any of you are using a Gotoh Floyd Rose and if it fitted into the Warmoth Floyd rout. I know there's a bit of confusion if they do fit, but I've heard from several people that it's a direct...

    Anyone's seen Suhr's tone / wood descriptions ?

    I was just on the Suhr site for the first time and found his descriptions of how which wood or combinations sound highly interesting. For example he says that he doesn't build swamp ash bodies with rosewood fingerboards unless a customer would really absolutely want it. Didn't think that...

    Relic finishes

    Couldn't find anything on that topic in suggestions and I don't mean to step onto anyone's toes if it's not their thing but maybe Warmoth could add a 'RELIC' option to the paint department. Maybe even a bit like Fender does with their customshop options were you can go from light-relic to full...

    Gotoh Floyd Rose trem

    I wonder why Warmoth aren't selling Gotoh Floyd Rose trems ? They've been getting really good reviews, even by people like Suhr, and I think they did some nice improvements to the original design. Like the way the arm can be tightened and especially the slightly rounded saddles which make for a...

    Kramer Baretta body

    This is probably never going to happen, but I'd really like to see Baretta bodies. The early ones from '83 which were almost Strat but not quite. One of the few 'slightly changed' Strat bodies that actually really looks good in my opinion...

    How much can you specify colour of fretboard wood ?

    I'm going to have a complete custom order, and was wondering when ordering the neck, how much can the customer specify colour of the wood used on the fretboard ? Let's say I'm going to order an AAA flame maple neck with a rosewood board, is it possible to kindly request the rosewood to be as...

    Experience with Wolfgang and SRV contour, please ?

    Today I did some proper measuring of my Strat necks and it turns out that the Warmoth Standard Thin is much thinner than the thinnest neck I've got (which I don't like that much). The one I like most of mine is about 2.1 cm - 2.3 cm which takes me into the either Wolfgang or SRV direction. I...
