Title: GAS! Warmoth guitar finished....
Post by: jordan on June 26, 2007, 11:01:45 PM: Rather than post 1600x1200 pictures in this thread, you can see them all here: http://creationoffrank.blogspot.com

The guitar is fitted with a set of Apaches, and sounds absolutely fantastic. I cannot say enough good things about the quality of the warmoth products - I'm delighted with the guitar.

Cheers,
Jordan.

The finish is inspired by the first Joe Perry Les Paul signature that came out years ago - it was the first time I'd seen a "blackburst", and always wanted one of my own ;-)

Good fun?

Post by: jordan on June 27, 2007, 12:28:26 PM: Yeah, I've had a blast piecing it together over the past year or so.
The trem springs/flush claw made a good difference, but now that it's a hardtail, I don't have to worry about that anymore!

Exactly, I'm a big fan of hardtails on Strat-types also... muchos easier.
