Warmoth 7/8 Guitar Bodies and Necks

Warmoth's 7/8 line let's you build a boutique-quality S or T-style guitar that's slightly smaller than normal. They are super comfortable to play, and use all your favorite standard-sized pickups and hardware. Top routed bodies require a Warmoth 7/8 S or T-Style pickguard. Learn more here: www.warmoth.com...

[@stompboxer1862]

Favorite guitar! Warmoth...please let us buyers build a 7/8ths guitar with a standard strat headstock.

[@mougabo]

And 22 frets

[@ashley-paul]

You can use a Mustang or Jaguar neck with these bodies. Or you can use one of these necks on Mustang or Jaguar bodies. They don’t advertise it, but they’re compatible. Lot of people have done it and there are plenty of those builds.

[@barnettg66]

A couple of observations: I have both the T-Style and S-Style 7/8ths. They are both of fantastic quality and beautiful. My S-Style with a 7/8 Warhead standard thin neck fits like a glove, and is simply the best guitar I have ever owned in 35+ years and dozens of high-end guitars. It has completely displaced both my Les Paul and my Am Standard Strat as my go-to instrument for everything. Even when placed side-by-side with a regular Strat, it is hard to tell any size difference. But it is very obvious when playing, and in the best of ways too! The T-Style is extremely nose heavy with the 7/8 Warhead neck. The more compact location of the front and back strap mounts compared to a standard tele body means there simply isn't enough lever force to counterbalance the neck, even with the lightest tuners. My home brew solution was to extend the front strap mount with a very long screw hidden inside a light stainless steel tube to extend the strap button out further towards the neck. While not as aesthetically pleasing as I'd like, it works and makes the guitar comfortably playable. I may at some point buy a Mustang neck for the T-Style and use lightweight tuners, and hopefully that will solve the nose dive issue.

[@kiezersosay49]

I have an S-style ⅞ build coming that going to look almost like the one Aaron has right there...holoflake finish but with the Wizard neck, 6100 SS jumbos, direct mount HH, roasted flamed maple, reverse headstock, and a tonepros birdge that's recessed into the body. My carvin dc400 has the tonepros like that. It's great for really low action and also reduces the break angle. Theres a video of Joe Walsh talking about how his carvin is built like that. He says "he couldn't even get Gibson to build it that way." When i saw warmoth builds like that i was pleasantly surprised. Its also good for longevity. The usual tonepros build methods can bend/warp over time... Your review has made me feel really good about my order. Did you build yours completely yourself? Im having a REALLY good luthier build mine. I know most aspiring luthier's are probably pretty decent, but this guy's has done and does work for some big names. He made Walt Becker(of Stelle Dan's) book of musical gear a bit thicker. Dan owned 17 of his guitars. He has some special fretwork he does that he came up with. I was going to leave the roasted maple unfinished, but he convinced me to go with a "Birchwood tru-oil" normally for gun stocks. Apparently its used a lot on guitar necks and body. It seems like its similar to tung oil in feel, but a bit more of a protective coat that makes the flame pop as well. Sry about the long message, but god damn im wantn my warmoth already! Its been 10 weeks and 5 days.

You can put small weights in the body .electronics cavity. Or do as Kiesel does with the hyperdrive have a country weigh drilled into body. .just thoughts

[@zyxwfish]

@@kiezersosay49it’s been a year how do you like it?

[@kiezersosay49]

@@zyxwfish dude I Fn absolutely love it. I spent a bit too much on it imo, but it feels every bit like an instrument that expensive. I got super lucky on an Ibanez rg5320 prestige(in cosmic shadow) 6 months ago and the playability/QC is right there with it. I was so impressed with how it turned out. I really had and exact idea of what I wanted from playability down to every minute detail. It didn't need one modification past everything I initially bought. Having a rout for the TOM bridge if Fn KEY to super slick easy bending playability. It's like top wrapping, but better. It's better for build longevity as well. There's an old Carvin video on here where Joe Walsh talks about how important that rout is and how Gibson WOULD NOT do it for him. I dont know if I mentioned it in the other post, but I got another warmoth in a trade that's also super spec'd out and with a different neck/25.5" scale. They both play so different, but so damn good. Better than any fender I've played, but I'm snob for SS frets and I'm not afraid to admit it.

[@angusorvid8840]

Larry Carlton, if I remember, had two Valley Arts sigs and they were 7/8. One had and EMG 85 SA/SA set if I recall and the other may have had P90s. I saw him play these live and I remember an interview with Carlton in Guitar Player around '88 or so. I've gotta say, I prefer the Warmoth headstock. I was never crazy about the Valley Arts headstock. I tried some of their axes at Mesa Sunset Sound around '87 and was very impressed with the quality. They also had Tom Andersons which were wonderful instruments. They had the Schechter fat slug coil buckers and singles. Great craftsmanship.

[@macrossgeorge]

My two favorite guitars are my two 7/8 scale Warmoth guitars - one is an S style and the other is a T style. I fitted both of mine with 24" Jaguar necks because I love that scale. It just feels way more comfortable in my hands. The smaller body is more comfortable to me as well. And they produce lighter instruments generally which is great for long sessions and gigs. I am hooked on the 7/8 Warmoth bodies. My next guitar will be another 7/8 body but with the 24.75" scale warhead neck.

[@mougabo]

so you can fit any fender neck there including a normal 25..5" ?

[@macrossgeorge]

@@mougabo Warmoth states that only their 7/8 warhead necks will intonate properly with their 7/8 bodies, but it turns out the 24" scale Jaguar and Mustang necks will also achieve proper intonation on their 7/8 bodies. 25.5 scale necks will not and are not compatible with those bodies.

[@alavery1065]

@@macrossgeorgeTo use a 24” neck, does any adjustment need to be made to the bridge position? Would I need to order the body without the bridge holes and drill them myself? I’m seriously considering the 7/8 with a 24” neck. My smaller hands would really appreciate it.

[@macrossgeorge]

@@alavery1065 No, not at all. 24" Jaguar and Mustang necks intonate perfectly on the Warmoth 7/8 bodies. They do not advertise this and they say that you must use their 7/8 warhead neck. I have successfully used Jaguar necks on three different warmoth 7/8 bodies with no alterations. I recently bought a 7/8 warhead neck to try on one of them and the intonation remained nearly exact when I changed necks. Only very slight saddle adjustments were made because I am a bit of a perfectionist. The 7/8 body with the 24" Jaguar neck is amazing for people with small hands. I love mine.

[@alavery1065]

[@donald-parker]

I made one long ago using a Warmoth 7/8 swamp ash strat body and a Moses Graphite neck custom made per my specs (custom 4x2 headstock, normal size strat type neck blank but with 24 frets using 24.75" scale (just like described in the video). It is still one of my favorite guitars 35 years later. One other cool thing is that your 5th fret harmonics work for all PUs. They are dead for a normal strat neck PU because the PU is right where the 24th fret should be (therefore, a point of no vibration for the harmonic standing wave). By shifting that PU back a bit, the sound comes through loud and clear. The 4x2 headstock design is more than just cosmetic. It is functional. You get enough break angle over the nut for your E and B strings that there is no need for string trees (and despite the fact that many guitars use string trees for the G and D strings too, I've NEVER seen a guitar that needed it to have a great open string sound from those strings).

[@Jaidezilla]

Valley Arts was how I first heard about Warmoth.

[@donald-parker]

Standard parts except pick guard ... need special 7/8 pick guard. If you have a trem, worth looking for smaller/weaker springs. My 7/8th warmoth has been my main guitar for 20 years. Love it. Other advantages ... 5th fret harmonic is usually inaudible on a strat/tele neck pickup (because the pickup is right at the "virtual 24th" fret) but it is audible on a 7/8 set up for any pickup.

[@Crispy_Music_2024]

Fun fact, the baritone conversion neck fits a 7/8 scale Sratocaster body and intonates properly since the bridge position is in the proper position

[@j_freed]

I immediately thought this sounded like a Gibson through a high gain amp circuit. It's the string tension! That's amazing.

[@NautilusGoth]

im always feeling like an standart size guitar fits kinda big, and heavy, and even an standart neck to like to big and to big frets to my small hands, but all this downsized stuff is like dream for me :3, what lovely company you are guys, i fell really glad to know about u, now im finally getting a guitar made to my body, only fender japan with their junior collection (where i get my downsized jazzmaster) fender México with the fender lead series (where i get my lead iii) and you guys are helping with that issue to some of us XP

[@donald-parker]

I have a guitar I built from a Warmoth 7/8 strat body and a Moses Graphite neck that used their normal 25.5 22 fret neck mold, but cut fret slots using the 24.75" scale. I like the lower string tension, and 24 frets. And added bonus - you can hear your 5th fret harmonics in all PU positions (unlike a normal strat where the "node" of that sound is right over the neck PU, so it is silent). I did have difficulty with the normal trem springs. It would be nice if they made special springs for this configuration. Of course, for a hard tail, it wouldn't matter.

1st off...BEAUTIFUL GUITAR!!! Awesome, just awesome! Now...DUDE, when you mentioned Valley Arts it reminded me of when I started working at my second combo music store that had, of all things, Valley Arts!!! Unfortunately the store had already severed ties with Valley Arts because in south central Louisiana they weren't really embraced for the GREAT guitars that they were. I also seem to remember some confusion with the Samick takeover, etc. But they were really great guitars, thanks for the walk down memory lane! Now, back to the guitar in the video...I LOVE IT! I also would like to know everything in the chain for the distorted guitar sound...that is epic! Of course Seymour Duncan pickups are hard to beat...if they can even BE beat. But I REALLY liked the distorted sound...A LOT! Thanks for the video and demo...makes me look forward to winning it all that much more! ;-)

Thanks Micky. The chain is pretty simple. Guitar > EVH 5150 pedal > Fender Hot Rod Deluxe > SM57 > Focusrite Pre > Reaper. That's it!

Awesome video! I've always wanted to hear how much the scale actually changed the tone, all other things being equal. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW, though, is if the tone would sound even darker on a 24.75" scale guitar if a brighter body wood (like alder or ash) was used. Just wondering if the tone in this video got only a smidge darker because the mahogany is already pretty dark, and maybe the law of diminishing returns kicks in with a brighter wood.

[@DanielColborne]

I am surprised nobody answered you 2 yeara ago...but...The wood has no effect on the electric guitars tone. This has been scientifically tested and verified using oscilloscope and all kinds of audio analysis. It can effect sustain. Pickups aren't microphones and will never pickup any influence from wood. They simply react to the vibration of the string over a magnetic field. Tone wood only exists in the acoustic guitar realm. Hope that saves you some money in your future purchases...if it's got fancy body wood and a non transparent paint job...you've waisted your money.

@@trevordeke I mailed warmoth about if the Jauguar neck will fit and they said it will 100% intonate. I don't know the other way around but you can send a email to them. [e-mail] is their email adress. They answered me after 3 hours

[@trevordeke]

@@MrHandsomeStudios The reason I am hesitant is that the Warhead headstock doesn't have any back tilt to increase the string tension like a Les Paul.

[@MrHandsomeStudios]

@parallax3d Nice!

@Warmoth Guitar Products - Can you also use a Warmoth Gibson Conversion 24 3/4 Tele neck on the 7/8 Warmoth Tele body?

[@warmoth]

Nope.

[@kevinp_25]

Is a 7/8 S-style body similar to a Charvel Dinky/DK body?

[@kmatax9237]

What color is the tele played? Black sparkle? Is that color available? The whole guitar looks awesome. Can you please write out the specs on it?

[@warmoth]

That color is our new Holo Flake finish, which is now available on any Warmoth guitar or bass body. We did a whole video on Holo Flake here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnymZnZ9lt2Xp7c&t= Also, if you dig that guitar, *make sure* you are paying attention to the Warmoth website, starting on 6-26-18! ;)

Not enough Van Halen !!! Hehehe

[@JR-ld1et]

So how much smaller is a 7/8s body than the standard s style body

[@christianarial1765]

How much lighter is the T-Style body?

[@warmoth]

It varies. On the average they will be lighter than the full size counterpart, of course. If you look through the Warmoth In-Stock showcase, the weight of each body is listed in the specs: www.warmoth.com/Pages/ClassicShowcase.aspx?Type=101&Path=78Series&Body=2&?mobile=no

[@lcglazer]

What’s the diff between a 7/8 body to full size? Lighter weight. Feels smaller when playing sitting. Tonally? Am I missing anything?

[@warmoth]

That's it, you nailed it. No tonal difference. Just smaller and lighter, with a built-in 24-3/4" scale length.

[@grisok]

What about 9/8ths for big dudes?? @warmoth

[@thatcookingfuntime1722]

wish ya'll would offer capri orange

[@warmoth]

It's coming soon....stay tuned!

[@juanh9350]

Can I have the smaller body with a regular 25.5 neck?

[@warmoth]

Nope. 7/8 bodies only work with 7/8 necks.

[@el_nestorvgc]

can we use any Warmoth "Gibson Scale Conversion" model, with this Warmoth 7/8 body ? Tks in advance.

[@warmoth]

No. 7/8 bodies only work with 7/8 necks.

[@joebubbit]

Can you put a regular 25.5 neck on it?

[@LetzBeaFranque]

Is it easier to play in 7/8 with these bodies and necks?
