Wamoth project! what do you guys think?!
« on: April 14, 2009, 05:15:21 AM »
Have been debating about what woods and finishes and such and i finally decided just now my wallet has to agree with it!  :P

Going for a soloist body exactly like this Binding wood etc. :
Mahogany with Red wood top and black binding



And neck like this:
Rosewood with Ebony fret board



Will be posting pics soon!

For pickups im going with H-H so thinking maybe a Nailbomb or C-bomb for bridge and maybe a coldsweat for neck.

Very tasty.

A lot of Warmoth love at the moment - a bit like the Tele love of a few months ago...

Looks amazing!

Black chrome all the way.

Gold too posh for me.

I wouldn't normally say this, but gold hardware!  It'll give that Reb Beach look (which may or may not be a good thing, depending on your point of view  :wink: ).

I really like the look of the dark woods on the neck - they had a nice walnut/ebony one the other day, but it wouldn't have looked right on my more "traditional" Strats.

this is my flamed redwood/swamp ash with a maple/ebony neck.  It has a HD/Trilogy/Trilogy set in it.  Wilkinson bridge and Sperzel tuners.  There a a few other guitars with it!

What do the Fecker Strat logos say?  Is it just "Partscaster"?

definitely a good thing :D :lol:

very nice-looking guitar, i think i've seen a few hubers with redwood tops, and they look absolutely stunning.
