What is your next guitar/gear purchase gonna be?

[ThePhilosopher]

Anyone done a full, swagged out, complete build Warmoth order before? Painted and finished body, neck, hardware, the whole nine yards. I'm digging that 7/8ths size S-style body they have paired with the Gibson-scale neck.

I didn't order the hardware from Warmoth, but this is one of their bodies, necks and pickguards. I've done 3 full Warmoth builds and had several parts from them in the past, all have been great. As @MaxOfMetal said be prepared to do some work or pay someone more skilled to do it for you for best results.

Very cool build, glad to hear another success story as well. Definitely moving me closer and closer to a complete Warmoth order.

May be picking up another Saber variant this weekend, currently messaging two different sellers.
Have been craving a hardtail, baritone 6 lately, although one of these would only scratch half of that itch.

Excited to mess with this Fortin TS9

I bought three Warmoth bodies... For the bodies- good quality, no fitment issues.

I bought three XGP bodies from GuitarFetish last year as well and I'll be honest, I kept them over the Warmoth bodies. The sparkle paint jobs on them are SICK and there are no flaws.

Between the XGP and Warmoth bodies, which ones did you find were lighter in weight?

Hmm, I guess they were all close enough that I didn't take notice. I don't really take weight into account with much of anything since I'm a stay-at-home hobby player now and haven't played a gig in 5 years or so. Each and every partscaster I made was heavier than my charvels though which are about 7 pounds I'd bet.

Ordered tools, half of them were in stock so waiting for those to arrive. Then im gonna put the proper knobs on the jcm800

I misread, the truss tool wasnt in yet.

But its mostly the spanner i wanted for the 2204 anyway
