Looks nice! Coincidently, I'm working on (but taking a temporary break from) my first guitar project... also from Warmoth.

My first, and so far only, project was a warmoth tele. I didn't do anything fancy as I just wanted some wood. Swamp ash body, maple/maple neck and some tung oil over all of it. Not much to look at but became my go to guitar pretty quick. I love it.

I'd LOVE to build a guitar like that.
I've always wanted a PRS, but a machine made guitar at handmade, custom prices turns me off a bit. I mean, production line PRS is nice, but a handmade JET or JAROS or GROSH or COLLINGS or...or.... Well, they're just extra nice..

Fabio, the vibrato bridge is a Wilkinson, you can go to the Warmoth site to look at the infinate options for a custom guitar project. They did not stock P92's so I ordered them from Fralin. I had planed to have a blender pot but the pot shaft was too short and I did not want to route the wood so I just plugged the middle hole with the perfect size plastic piece I found at Lowe's. I have fun telling people it is a "boost" button or other nonsense.

If you'd put a pot/knob in that blank hole you could really have fun with people..."see how it mellows out(or whatever) when I turn this knob?"...I guarantee at least half of em would say "yeah, I gotta have one of them thangs!"
