Wow, Warmoth's had a redesign and it still looks like a dated, home made website. Needs new font, FAST.

Quite cool how they're spending time to try to innovate stuff like that. Shame they dropped the rhythm section to create the split pickguard, but it still looks nice.

The Split Pickguard idea is so heinous I want to die.

i'd love to see one in white with black pickguards, a couple of filtertrons and stop-tail..

new site sucks though. it's hideous in every way. the menu doesn't allow you to search for the same things that the old one did, it takes ages to load. Embedded viewstates in asp.net are never a good thing... 1Mb per page?? wtf???

"I know, let's get the widest looking guitar body that only just works with it's current gaurd and make it look even wider!"

I bet they did high 5s all round after comin up with that peach of an idea. Twats.

Ibanez'd?

$175 for a plain alder body...Don't know why that part suddenly bothers me more, but I could have Mr. Ryu at Willows Guitar clone a Jazzo body in a quality cut of ash(if needed) and have it fully finished in Fender color of choice plus any routing configuration under the sun for less than that.

The old website was way better.

Easier to navigate and clear and crisp.

This thing looks like it was created by a 13 year old Goth Metal fan.

WTF

its a cool idea, but come on, 145 bucks for the cheapest they have?
thats insanity!
you know that if im paying about 14 bucks for a poplar blank then they are paying probly 4 bucks, and its all cnc, so there is no need to really pay someone, and besides the cnc can do it in a matter of minutes.
places like warmoth piss me off becuz they are just taking advantage of people.
get a router and some wood, you will gain a wealth of knowledge and in the end it will be cheaper, and the same quility as long as you have patience.
