Yeah.

Wish there was a European/British equivalent.

I know there are UK people around on eBay etc selling necks and bodies, but they're not comparable with Warmoth in terms of great (and genuine) pictures, detail of body weights etc.  The quality of the eBay stuff might be good but there's a large element of pot luck.

Anyway, what did you buy?  :smiley:

New cream strat body.  Cacked up the last build I did, so I'm having another crack at it.

No BKPs in this one, so I'll stay quiet about it.  Although if it's a good 'un I'm sure it'll get ITs at some point in its life!!!

Sounds good.

It's ages since I bought anything from Warmoth, I seem to have kicked the habit.  Which isn't to say I don't check their site just about every day.  :wink:

Just as a footnote - the body is fab, and well worth the extra money!!!  Here's a shot of it - feels OK to post it here, as it's flanked by my VHII and Blackguard Flat 50 guitars (with the PRS hiding sheepishly at the back...)

Blimey, that was quick (you know I'm always amazed by such things).  :grin:

It has a bit of a Ritchie Blackmore vibe.  Highway One neck?
