Warmoth Project #2

[Clint 55]

Slightly overwound bridge? Nice.

[Synapsys]

Very cool news about your project, Mincer. Has the body, looks wise, met your expectations?

[PFDarkside]

Did you do a unique choice top or just standard flame?

[Mincer]

No unique choice, but I hadn't seen many unique choice tops that look this cool. Yes, it exceeded my expectations. It is a really interesting figure, with what looks like alien faces on it.

I connected the neck and body tonight, and started work on the bridge. But here is a pic of the body on a table at home. Not the best lighting, but you get the idea.

That's a gorgeous looking body. Such a contrast between the back and front too.

[Ashurbanipal]

Sweet woods all around, and those are some evil looking Seths!

Thank you! I was going for wildly different wood types. The satin finish feels wonderful too.

[ArtieToo]

. . . and those are some evil looking Seths!

I agree. And how apropos that the lettering on the box almost looks like "Seth Loner."

Cool project, Dave.

[ErikH]

That’s sweet.

[Mincer]

So far, I connected the bridge, and the body to the neck. I am taking this slow, and working on 1 small thing every time I sit down. Tomorrow is strap locks, and might get to the copper tape.

Looking good!

For copper tape shielding are you doing all the control cavity and pickup cavities?

[Mincer]

Not the pickup cavities, since you would see them- the pickups will be wood mounted, and I don't want copper shining through. If there is a big problem with noise, I might get black shielding paint and paint the cavities.

[Mincer]

Here is the shielding work (I put Schaller S Locks on, but I didn't take a pic of those).

This is before I covered the little shelf for the screws.
