Warmoth is the world's leading brand for replacement bodies and necks.
This is a custom guitar crafted by Warmoth, inspired by the Fender Starcaster.
It features an exceptionally luxurious combination: a one-piece Swamp Ash body back and a 5A grade Flame Maple top.
Its semi-hollow construction, featuring a double cutaway body design with F-holes, delivers a distinctive sound that blends the warmth of a solid body with the tightness of an acoustic guitar, offering a balanced resonance.
The neck and fingerboard are crafted from Purpleheart.
This premium wood is renowned not only for its striking beauty but also for its hardness and exceptional, stable playability.
The neck profile is Wolfgang.
True to its name, it features an asymmetrical neck profile modeled after Eddie Van Halen's signature instrument.
It offers a comfortable grip while maintaining high playability, proving invaluable for executing technical phrases.
Additionally, it incorporates modern playability features like a 13" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets.
Equipped with Black Smoker Original pickups.
The sound is rich and sweet yet maintains tightness.
The semi-hollow construction and thinner body provide good feedback resistance, so distortion is no problem.
CTS pots, SONIC capacitors, Gotoh tuning machines and bridge, and a titanium neck plate demonstrate attention to hardware detail.
This is a rare model not often seen on the market.
Why not take advantage of this opportunity?
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod and neck condition are good.
Body and finish: Metal parts show some dullness. Scratches near the 1st string on both pickups. Small paint imperfections near the 1st string cutaway and the 6th string F-hole. String marks near the 1st string peg post on the headstock top. Overall, a nice used condition.
Electronics condition: Good.
No obvious modifications were observed.
