Sweet! That should look awesome with the surf blue.

Anything I should take note of going into it? Will Warmoth have installed the tuners or will I have to do that?

Did you order tuners from Warmoth too? I just used the ones off my Squier. Either way I doubt they installed anything but tuners are super easy. They should have reamed out the holes you'll just need to drill the mounting holes in the back of the headstock and slap them on. My neck came in really great shape and everything lined up fine once I had the body modified a bit, but that's because I got a tele neck and if yours has a Strat heel it should slide right on no problem. Also the truss rod comes pretty much all the way loosened. I think mine might need a tiny shim I'm going to look at it some more tonight.

Yeah, got Vintage Style Gotoh Tuners from them since I'm seeming to like vintage style with the Jazzmaster. Seems simple enough to install them! I SO hope I have the correct bit tonight or else I'll be heading back out to the hardware store. Any chance you know the bit size off the top of your head?

And yeah, It's a Strat style neck instead of a tele style so it should be fine. I've never adjusted a truss rod, so this should be fun :)

Nah, I don't remember what bit size I used. It was small and I just drilled a couple holes in some scrap and tested what worked best for the mounting screws. Just like everyone says go slow with the truss rod and it's no biggie. Check if it spins real easy counter clockwise when you get it because mine did and you can do a little tightening before throwing it on first. It's a little slow going when you have to take the neck off every time to adjust, but not so bad.

Yeah....

If you got the "Warmoth Pro" style neck you can do most of your adjustments with the neck on.
You just have to loosen the strings first. It should come with a fairly detailed instruction sheet too.
Just make sure you have a long straight edge or level and you should be good to go. :thumb:

There's only one construction option for their baritone conversions and I'm pretty sure the truss rod adjustment is always at he heel.

Oh yeah, I forgot I sold my Organizer too. :(
Did sound cool on bass, and guitar of course. Needed the money.

If it makes you feel any better, I hadn't even thought of a connection to the name until now. And it took me a second to figure it out.
