I know it can work (https://warmoth.com/guitar-neck-fit), but curious if there are any potential issues to be aware of since it's not an exact fit. Thanks in advance for the collective wisdom!

Regular swamp ash has a 1-piece option but roasted swamp ash does not. Also didn't see any 1-piece roasted swamp ash bodies in stock. Is it possible to get one?

https://www.fender.com/articles/instruments/jaguar-controls-past-and-present-what-you-need-to-know https://prosoundhq.com/jaguar-control-guide-how-to-use-a-jaguar-electric-guitar/ Lots of variations out there. I assume there are even better options than the ones described in these links...

I've used an LSR nut for decades on my main guitar and find the whole shaping/replacing process frustrating for more typical nuts. I'm having issues with the TUSQ nut I'm using now and am wondering if brass (or possibly even steel?) would be worth trying. Any strong opinions?

Tele was playing fine. Changed strings today and suddenly I'm having a massive intonation problem with the center strings. D string frets about 20 cents sharp and G string frets about 10 cents flat. I have (compensated) barrel saddles so I can only move them in the same direction. EA & BE...

Thoughts on wooden pickguards? Thinking about putting one on a natural ash body but maybe it would be wood overload? These look pretty nice but kind of pricey: https://www.etsy.com/listing/926093080/van-dyke-harms-telecaster-wood-pickguard Any other good options out there?

I prefer to buy from Warmoth but is there a simple way to avoid this 50% shipping cost?

As promised, here's my latest Warmoth neck installed. The neck is completely raw. I took the time to burnish it down to ~1200 grit and am very satisfied with the result. Silky smooth. The smell of working with canary isn't my favorite. For those interested, I used 3M polishing papers: 400...

Pre-drilled guide holes for tuning machines.

What do you fellas use for relatively low-volume playing, i.e. home studio recording, small gigs, etc.? I've been using a Blues Junior as a pedal platform, plus some other small things (Pignose, etc., mainly for wet-dry), but I'm getting tired of the BJ's "flubbiness", if you know what I mean...

I've always played strats (25.5), but have really been digging my new conversion neck (24.75). How do people feel about 24"? Should I consider doing a Jaguar?

I have an unfinished canary neck with a fat neck profile on the way. Can I sand the thing down a bit if it's feeling too girthy? Any words of warning? I've never taken sandpaper to a neck before...

Curious why Warmoth doesn't offer a LP Special doublecut body? Seems like a great compact, flat, LP control layout body. Velocity checks a lot of the same boxes but no LP controls. How much of a PIA would it be for me to shape a body blank?

@rauchman did you have to drill your own?

Are they very similar?

Hi wiring gurus, Hoping someone can provide some guidance to this wiring n00b. I have zero experience with active pickups and very little experience with custom wiring in general, so any guidance is most appreciated! I want to build a Tele with a pair of active P90s, each of which have 3...

I'm waiting to pull the trigger until Mary Kay or Butterscotch is back...
