    Thanks, BriGuy. I'm pleased with this one.

      I started a thread for it, but probably belongs here. Building a Warmoth Tele. I had been thinking about one, and now scratching together the funds to put something together. Looking at two-color sunburst (tobacco-burst) with maple neck with vintage tint. Still getting parts so more to come!

          Beautiful, ChAoZ. Those 'accidents' can pay off.

                  Warmoth. Very nice.

                  Modern construction with the side adjust? What are the specs?

                    Yes, modern construction. 22 frets. Original slim and Warmoth radius.

                    I couldn't pass it up... $210 with vintage tint finish. Was a great deal.

                      Yeah, some of those necks are quite a value. I have two with the side adjust. Set them up the first time and that's it. One I've had for two years and it's never needed to be re-adjusted. The other one is just installed. Congrats. Looking forward to seeing your build.

                        Trying a new finishing method, anyone else used Solarez UV-Cure resin before?
                        Tried some stain on an Ash scrap and liked it so I stained the back and sides to match

                          That's a rich blue. I like it a lot. Can't wait to see it completed.

                            Thanks! It was in the Screaming Deals section. I'm looking for a body now and trying to figure out the pickups.
