I love the look of that Antique Copper Hardware! But just not enough to pay 100+% markup just for a different color...
 
Re: New Project - Warmoth Mahogany with Flamed Redwood Top

Wow that is sweet looking!!! Looking forward to the finished product. :headbang:
 
Re: New Project - Warmoth Mahogany with Flamed Redwood Top

Gorgeous top on that, and the copper will look sweet on it. Can't wait to see the finished instrument!

Thank you very much! I love the Redwood top!

I would love the copper but haven't fully committed to it yet...it does have black binding and the pickups are Bill Lawrence (Bill N Becky) that are shielded so they have visible chrome showing...may just keep the black hardware...
 
Re: New Project - Warmoth Mahogany with Flamed Redwood Top

I would've said gold, but black'll work, too...

I've been tempted recently to start casting my own parts in brass.

Really please with the way the top came out

After talking with the guy who did the binding and finishing, it looks like I will be going with Chrome Hardware. After talking, with the major "Brown" colors running throughout the guitar we concluded that Black Hardware would not be the best.

I'm going to go with Chrome Grover Mini Tuners and this Schaller 2000 Strat Tremolo

That tremolo on chocpud will be unreal. Chrome will work really well too.

Double creme pups?

Shielded Bill Lawrence 500L in the neck and 500XL in the bridge (Wilde/Bill 'N Becky not the BLUSA stuff)

The Cream would look awesome on that guitar though!

A big thumbs up to the Bill Lawrence L-500's.
