Roasted Maple Warhead Neck

- The finish on this body is actually Bengal Burst, and NOT Tiger's Eye as I said in the video. By this point I've been stuck at home in my covid-19 bunker watching Tiger King for far too long. To see all the Roasted Maple necks currently in stock, go here: www.warmoth.co...
Sitting at home, building my dream Regal body and Superwide Warhead guitar online. For the 1000th time.
Can't wait till the end of quarantine.
killroy123 I feel you. I’ve been eyeing the hybrid Tele bodies and a roasted maple neck. This quarantine sucks balls.
I stopped torturing myself a couple of weeks ago already haha.
What finish are you looking at?
@@DBSG1976 Going to ask if they can do solid white color. Want to do a Buckehead build.
I've really grown to like the Warhead headstock shape. I've seen a few variations of the Fender headstock shape over the years, some bad, some good, and some indifferent, but Warmoth's take on it is excellent.
It’s like a peavey predator headstock
I purchased one of the roasted flame maple necks to replace a high end "F" neck I used on a build. I hated the "F" neck, but LOVE the Warhead. I use roasted Warheads now on almost every build I do. For a more basic guitar, I pair it with a rosewood board. On a higher end build I opt up to the flamed & roasted with ebony. But that first one has a purpleheart board since it is paired with a "S" replacement body in trans purple over mahogany. The warhead is my favorite headstock of any guitar brand anywhere. I even had it added to my J bass necks. Roasted for Life !
Badass. I’ve never given a “Warhead” neck a second thought, but I really dig the way it looks. Time to peruse the “In Stock” section!!
Your guitar sound is WAAAAAAY better at home! That lead at the beginning was perfect sounding.
At home I have access to a "wider variety" of toys. :)
That is a beautiful guitar. I absolutely love the body shape, and the combination of woods and finish. Simply stunning. Not to mention, it sounds pretty damn good too.
Just got a roasted body and neck from Warmoth! Jumbo stainless frets! The fret ends are actually the smoothest i’ve got on any guitar including Gibson and Ibanez prestige.
WORD OF THE DAY: "chatoyance" or "cat's eye" effect, is coined from the French "oeil de chat", meaning "cat's eye".
Aaron has more chops than a butcher shop! 😎
That guitar is SICK! I love the finish and I bet it looks even better in person.
Man it sounds KILLER
That is quite honestly one of the most beautiful guitars I have ever seen! Thanks for these videos, you explain things in such a calming way!
Roasted maple looks good and feels good. That's why it's popular.
Chatoyance made my day & upped my guitar And wood game❕😉🙏🏻
You are a great Rep for Warmonth. I hope they appreciate you as much as we do.
Love the tone...tight, tangy, and a little bit twangy, without being shrill.
1:22 Ahrr... the last time I held a tiger's eye garnet in me hand was when we finally found the sunken treasure of Captain Ripshanks flagship vessel off the coast of Gansbaai bay.
Beautiful guitar! And THAT is a roasted maple Neck!
I've been watching your Covid Bunker Videos for a couple weeks now. I just noticed you change your Album covers for each video. AWESOME!
The first two Dio albums! The best Vivian Campbell, IMHO
Absolutely. Did you know the Nightswan guitars Vivian used in that era were made from Warmoth parts? Check it out:blog.warmoth.com/2016/07/20/warmoth-kramer-nightswan-prototypes/
I had also not given the Warhead much attention, but have now replaced my previous preferences with it. Love that tiger's eye dye.
Ha, I just noticed the album covers change. Beautiful guitar. Thank you for doing these videos.
I can hear your ring hitting the guitar finish my good sir 🤓 gorgeous guitar
That top is gorgeous.
I never thought a rear routed strat would look right but that thing is awesome.
Hey Aaron
It's me again! I just wanted to say I never refer to my Warmoth guitars as part casters. I always refer to them as Warmoth custom builds!!
To me part casters sounds so cheap. I bought one of those 300$ kit guitars and knew right away that was not for me! I gave it away to someone who I don't even know that well. Not sure if they even did anything with it.
I'm right there with ya. My first bass neck was an original '66 J-Bass neck that had been Jaco'd. As it had a rosewood fingerboard, it eventually wore down too much to play it as a fretless, so I keep it for nostalgia. I had Mike Lull replace it with a Warmoth maple neck with ebony fingerboard. The tone absolutely beat the hell out of the Fender neck. Seriously no comparison. I could not be happier with Warmoth builds.
Stunning, puts so many other brands to shame!
Love at first sight with that beauty !!! I may need to pick one of these up ! Thanks for all videos you’re posting . Much appreciated !
I was sitting here playing my Fender American tele with Warmoth roasted maple neck. Modern construction and stainless frets. I love it!
"and the back actually has quite a bit of flame on it..." proceeds to burn up the fretboard...
I love that property of Chatoyance in maple. It makes the wood seem alive. One of the drawbacks of A certain big manufacturer who is identified by their initials, is that they dye the Chatoyance right out of their maple. Granted, their maple is still undeniably beautiful, but it's so much less alive because it no longer pops at the correct angle of view.
Nice looking dye job!
Beautiful guitar!
Another great video and learned a new word 😉👍
That is a great color .. I'm currently working on a Warmoth Strat styled guitar, but next one will be similar to this, only with a bridge humbucker and a single coil neck, .. DeMartini style. .. no middle pickup.
That guitar sounds good!!!
The warhead design is super nice! Roasted maple is where it's at!
Off topic. I've been checking out the early fender bullet strats from 1981-83. I'd love to see warmoth do body and neck replacements for them.
Aaron's vids made me subscribe to this channel. I love Warmoth, your products are second to none, Aaron is a treasure. Unmatched knowledge and superb playing. @Aaron, keep the vids coming man!
Wow, I love that finish and that neck. Reminds me a little of one of my Ibanez’s.
beautifull guitar!
Awesome video!
That thing is SO my style!
That's one gorgeous guitar.
I have a very flamy Musikraft neck on a strat that does that. I always wondered if I did a better job popping the grain if the flame would be more visible from all angles. Also it has a six screw Gotoh 510 trem with steel block. Like a vintage with a modern arm. Perfect.
That top is BEAUTIFUL!!
Hope more headstocks get a tilt back option.
Fender man Approved!
What a beautiful guitar!
Damn Aaron that's purty
That is a hot super strat! 😍
Sweet axe. I wish I had unlimited money so I could order bodies & necks to my heart's content. I've built 3 using Warmoth necks. Every one has been quality.
You guys really need to start constructing and also selling some complete builds, even in limited quantities if that's all you can do time-wise at this point, using your bodies and necks. Include them in maybe a showroom section on your website of complete guitar builds by Warmoth. I know I'd buy a few.
Keep it up. Love these daily videos.
Really great video, as usual! Keep it up Aaron!
Man this guitar is a killer. I wish i wasn't so poor.
sound awesome
Roasted Maple is the best!!!
I love that guitar, no shhtoyance.
Would love to see a snakehead neck sometime, keep the vids they are amazing!
I have a Warmoth strat body with a rattle snake skin pattern... I think that roasted maple neck would be perfect for it. : )
That is a seriously tasty guitar.
What is the sound we are hearing while you play? Is through an amp, or through your computer? If it is your amp then what amp are you using? Effects? What are you recording the video and sound with? Thanks, bill
Okay, I love the Bengal Burst! What about the other dye patterns (40th Annv.) you alluded to in comment?
Awesome guitar. I’m curious what fretboard radius this guitar has and what radius do you prefer on your builds? Thanks!
covered in 900lbs of vinyl and poly- Warmoth finishes!
Sweet 👍
nice axe!
Sick!!!
What should a customer be aware of before buying a roasted maple neck? For example, is it a drop in replacement for your guitar or do you have to do fret levelling, truss rod adjustments, fret end dressings, crownings, etc?
Oh and are the fingerboard edges rolled?
In the video you made 2 months ago on the roasted maple warhead neck attached to the tigers eye body. What size frets were on that neck? They looked huge. Thanks
Hey Aaron
That finish on that strat is amazing.
That's how I roll! all black hardware FR bridge. Is that a tiger eye burst finish? I have a Bengal burst flame top with the taped edge. The only down side to it is that is a top route.
I have a black pearloid pick guard and all black hardware. I have a arcade rev headstock with rose wood fret board with white pearloid stars. It is an amazing guitar.
Thanks to all of the awesome craftsmen and women for producing world-class products that are second to none!!! Thanks for the video's Aaron.
Well, this lockdown has ruined my economy/expectations in getting my dream guitar from Warmoth. :(
Boy that REALLY hurt to have to use the money I had saved up for a guitar...
Still, there's other priorities, as this damn virus is messing things up. I should be thankful that I'm still alive and am able to play and compose...
Great information in your videos, thx for the info on toasted/roasted maple necks!
I do hope one day I can actually order a LEFTY from you guys, but the one I want is rather a simple; modern/vintage neck, with vintage tuners, fat profile neck, 22- medium stainless steel frets and a Stratocaster body for single pickups, with a 6-screw vintage bridge!
I can't wait to use the application on your website where one can order a guitar step by step! And custom it to ones own taste!
Take care, and be safe!
Tough times. Feel for ya Lefty. Hang in there.
@@OutstandingBill1 Thx bud.
Hello Mr. Aaron!
Excellent share care, as always, much respect and appreciation! Well, on the subject of Warhead Stat roasted maple necks. With an order of such, would there be an increase difficulty rating on an RMN and RMN, fingerboard to have a post Warmoth luthier (due only that I didn't see that option on Warmoth Mobile site), to install offset, Z pattern 3mm inlay dots? My concern is only (obviously, I don't know my woods or inlay setting process), on the subject of hardness of RMN wood.
P.S. My apologies if my inquiry is inappropriate on this platform and being slow out the gate,if your unable to respond, no worries and Thank You!!! Smiles Always!
True story, I was up last night wondering if the roasting was just on the surface or if it went all the way through....
Aaron doesn't just play a wide variety of styles, he is also READING YOUR MIND
Like, whoa....
2:01 would be cool to see a rundown of Warmoth's most popular "exotic" woods :)
If you get a chance, try a wenge neck. Probably the coolest feeling neck I've tried.
What is the term for a plain maple thick cap? Like a double lam top without the second fancy laminate. Single double lam top?
That’s a beauty 🔥🔥🔥
Wow!
Damn is that a beauty!
Great video man, Im really enjoying them all. quick question. Is it possible to get the masked off binding in the red color of the burst as a cutsom build? Black back and sides, see through red binding and then a black to red burst would be A-MA-ZING.
Pleeeease offer the Warhead neck for full scale J/P basses! Love the design
You can get it as an off-menu option if you call in.
@@warmoth Thanks!!
Damn that body looks amazing. Wish the neck was a bit glossier, maybe oil it up to match the body better and also pop out the yiddish)))
Ooooooo I bet that would look nice on a Sage Green Body. What think?
It’s a bummer you guys don’t make a Wizard profile Mahogany neck
Is it possible to adress the dreaded dead spot issue on the bass G string? I've read that the 32 inch scale minimizes the problem. Also Warmoth claims their steel bars in the neck minimize the problem.
Did you say the paintjob was Tiger's Eye? I think you meant to say Bengal Burst...still in the tiger family ;-) but more tiger and less eye! It is a beautiful piece of kit, no joke.
OMG....you're right! Ha! What an idiot I am. That's what three weeks of life in a covid-19 bunker with nothing to entertain you but episodes of Tiger King will do!!
I'd like to request Neck Tone Test Ep2, to compare the roasted maple to raw maple. Are you prepared to offer any thoughts or opinion on the difference?
Any future plans for a headless model? I'd love a soloist body style with a headless option. big fan of the portability
No plans for a headless neck at this time.
Aaron, can you give us the specs on that Neck?
Nut width, Fretboard radius, Fret size and Neck back profile? Thanks!!
Hi Aaron, when ordering a new neck, is it possible to have warmoth drill 25/64'' holes with additional 2 pin holes per tuner for mounting fender american standard tuners?
No, sorry. We don't don't drill for guide pins on tuners.
Is there any reason you guys don't roast other woods, like basswood, mahogany, or walnut? To that end, could you roast any of the tropical hardwoods like wenge?
Hi Aaron. Can you show us the tone difference between maple cap VS maple neck, on a mahogany guitar?
Aaron, can you talk about replacing a neck where you go from say 21 to 22 frets?
Is this a natural masked, a cream or a white binding? Thank you
Natural masked.
I'm a bit skeptical about a neck that has no finish on it. I wonder how long it will last before oxidation starts to affect the wood grain.
@Brian Wilson I just woered about that, thank you. I currently live in Ohio, and the humidity up here by the lake goes up and down throughout the year. I'm having an issue with a '57 RI Strat neck where the nitro finish has worn off.
Awesome guitar do you have bass like the finish and neck
Will Warmoth ever offer Anodized pickguards?
Hmm. I got a Fender Strat with a warmoth Wenge neck...But that roasted maple sounds like a neat thing.
If I get a roasted maple neck, does that absolutely need a finish? Cause I like my maple necks unfinished.
Roasted Maple does not require a finish for warranty. :)
.... 04/14/2020: Hello Aaron. I love your videos! Question: I want to combine a Strat body with a Telecaster electronics. Custom make a new pick-guard for Tele pickups and 3-way switch to fit on a Strat body. Get all the comforts of Strat, but sound like a Tele ... is that possible? If so, could you build one for everyone to see?
What you seek is our Hybrid Strat® body. Check it out: www.warmoth.com/Pages/ClassicShowcase.aspx?Body=2&Type=94&Path=Stratocaster,Hybrid?mobile=no
Maybe I'll do a video on them once I get back to the shop. Good idea!
I have a question about a warmoth boatneck I purchased some time back. It's one piece roasted maple. Is it safe for me to sand the back to slightly change the shape? I've heard that the truss rod location varies with the neck shape and don't want to sand so much that I actually run into the truss rod.
