Warmoth lead times?

[Mr 9finger]

Anyone have any idea what the current wait time on custom ordered Warmoth stuff is right now? Or what it usually is?

I ordered some parts the other day and it came with the confirmation email. It is a little weird that it isn't up on the site.

Very cool, but yeah, a little odd that it's not up on the site. I was going to order tonight, but I think I'm going to call Musikraft or USACG to see what their lead times are right now before I do. 6 weeks is going to put me in the mid fall time frame and I'm planning on using nitro, so that's really pushing it.

Not really mang. It's not uncommon to see a 4-6 week time frame for custom ordered parts. I was just making sure it wasn't longer than 6 weeks or it would be a no deal situation and I'd go with something. I've seen them run as long as 8-10 weeks in their busy season.

If I had climate controlled area to spray, it wouldn't be a problem, but I'm wanting to use nitrocellulose lacquer, and mid fall is pushing it around here for using that stuff.

Just ordered a showcase neck. No paint but it did have to have the frets and nut installed, took about 3 weeks.

In the past ordering from scratch with paint has taken about 6-8 weeks.

Just ordered a showcase neck. Installation for frets & nut + satin finish for the maple neck (not the fretboard) took exactly seven days! It's my first maple & showcase neck I'm ordering, all the others have been non maple/unfinished.

Warmoth have less work on summer, it's the best time to make an order.
