warmoth has my order - i've bottled out of ash and gone for alder

Cool.  Finished or unfinished?

Finished yes. Since they don't offer many really garish 80s solid colours (except maybe apline white and graffiti yellow), I went for vintage white... I'm sure it will improve the tone :lol: ;)

raises the zenlike question: when does a pimped squier become a warmoth build?

Good - i've just arrived in this thread and I was thinking maple neck with ash and a rebel yell would pierce your ears.
Alder should be cool.
