Members Prages Posted July 4, 2005 Members Share Posted July 4, 2005 Originally posted by BowerR64 Prages, how much were your warmoth guitars? Including the cases, I've got about $1200 into the quilted one and about $1000 into the orange one. They weren't cheap by any means, but they are damn nice guitars. I'd put them right up there with Anderson in terms of quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bek1 Posted July 4, 2005 Members Share Posted July 4, 2005 Sunshine, that is nice. Here's my Lindert. Bought the body and neck on ebay after the company folded. Ordered and installed: Grover locking tuners, Schaller heavy top-loader bridge, VZ Rock in the bridge, Blues in the neck and FAS in the middle, Switchcraft jack, FAS 5-way switch and Deaf-Eddie Fat-O-Caster doing the switching, concentric volume/tone pot. Jeannie Pickguards tortoise covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members archiemax Posted July 4, 2005 Members Share Posted July 4, 2005 Originally posted by PFDarkside What are your pickups and switching schemes? Sorry, PFD, forgot to subscribe to this thread--Top p/up's an old Gibson PAF that's been tapped, middle's a SD stack, bridge is stock Fender. Bottom switch is a standard 5-way; top switch (a Superswitch ) sets up the top humbucker as: Humbucker, parallel, slug coil, screw coil, or slug coil on top with screw coil combined with the bridge pickup. 11 combinations total. I like having a lot of variety on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bek1 Posted July 4, 2005 Members Share Posted July 4, 2005 Thanks. I do wish it wasn't quite so heavy. I'm sure glad it's semihollow; that "Toneyte" stuff is dense. That LP/Tele thing you've got going is nice. A modernized makeover of two classics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Switch Posted July 4, 2005 Members Share Posted July 4, 2005 K. I'd like a mahogany "vip" or "soloist" body from warmoth, with a laminated lacewood top. Maybe a nice deep blood red dye on the body? Warmoth pro 24 fret wolfgang profile neck make outta goncalo avles and a padouk fretboard. No binding, no inlays, flourecent side dots. Warmoth headstock. Earvana nut. Some nice tuners. One of these style of bridges, string thru body. Not sure of the pickups yet, but something ballsy obviously. 2 splitable humbuckers, maybe a single coil at the neck, like that deftones' dude's guitar. Probably 500k pots, 1 tone 1 volume, both push/pull to split buckers, 5 way switch, chromacaster switch. Matching dyed wood knobs, or chrome. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go masturbate.

Sweet setup, I've always wanted to wire my LP like the Jimmy Page with 4 push/pull pots for coil splits, series/parallel and phase. Maybe when I figure out what I want to replace the JB/AP2 with I'll do it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BootRoots Posted July 5, 2005 Members Share Posted July 5, 2005 this one Basswood body (saga:D ) homebrew finish with spraypaint/lacquer Warmoth neck (maple/ebony) Texas Specials Schaller tuners Fender 2-point trem Idealy I would have loved a mahogany or ash body but this started off as a cheap project and has snowballed from there. Its now one of my main guitars, and I absolutly love the sound. I just recently switched out a vintage style trem for a fender 2 point (like my fav am std strat) and it took this guitar from great, to wicked-badass great . I'm not sure I'd want to make any other changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost track of it, glad to finally see it. How does the cypress sound? The *only* thing I'm not so hot on is the pickguard, everything else looks classy!! Thanks man. I'll admit, it took me a LONG time to decide between a white and a black pickguard. I'll probably break eventually and make a black one to go on it, and switch them around periodically. This guitar really doesn't sound like anything i've heard before. It has a very aggressive attack and punch, but there is nothing harsh about it. Clean, it is very full and warm, with all the single coil spank you would expect from tele pickups. Lots of bloom and articulation. It has extreme clarity, whether clean or distorted. One of the things i like most about it is how much of the single coil character it maintains even under heavy distortion. It still has just the right amount of jangle. I'm really very happy with the outcome, and the body turned out beautiful. If you're ever interested in a custom guitar body, Brian Schultz is your man.

Members IdaCrue Posted July 6, 2005 Members Share Posted July 6, 2005 Just got a Digital Camera so here goes the first pics. Please forgive any problems, just learning how to use it. The guitar is a Frankenstrat. The following parts were used: 1. MIK Kramer Focus Neck 2. Gotoh tuners 3. MIM Fender Midnight Wine Satin body 4. Kramer Quad Rod pickguard and Quad/Hum/Hum pickups 5. CTS Pots 6. Allparts switch 7. Chrome Volume/Tone/Tone knobs 8. Kramer Vintage Trem (Soon to be replaced with a Allparts Vintage Trem). 9. Dunlop Dual Design strap locks The guitar was an old ugly Kramer Focus in the pukey looking Vintage Sunburst color. The neck was great after I polished the frets and smoothed the fret ends. I used the StewMac fretboard dye to darken the fretboard. The Fender Midnight Wine Satin body was purchased on Ebay from a guy that parts out MIM Fenders. I had to get 4 longer neck plate screws since the Kramer body was thinner than the Fender body. But it went together real well, and I loved putting it together. I also loved throwing that ugly Vintage Sunburst plywood body in the garbage How did I do on the pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
