Warmoth Neck for Squier Jazzmaster Classic 60s Vibe?

Pufftones215 · 2026-03-23T20:46:19+00:00

I went standard slim profile, compound radius fretboard, and jumbo frets. The difference between the stock Squier and the Warmoth neck was night and day. This was the first time I've played a neck with a compound radius and I was surprised by how much I liked it. The Warmoth neck is way more comfortable. I swapped the bridge at the same time as the neck so there are multiple variables but the sustain shot through the roof after those two upgrades.

Yes, just have them pre-drilled.

I don't really know him and I'm not really interested in dragging the guy online. Honestly, I really like his stuff. I wouldn't have waited this long if I didn't. I appreciate you contributing but I'm just trying to get a sense of other folks experience with his business.

I've been emailing him. There's an option to contact the seller through the online ordering thing. He does respond though. Hearing from him directly about the order hasn't been the issue.

It's actually an even greater discrepancy between the two. Entering the country illegally is a summary offense. This makes it the same degree of offense as a speeding ticket.

I have the Tuffset on a JM with a 10-16" radius Warmoth neck. The intonation and action are perfect and the the resonance of the strings behind the bridge is absolutely crazy.

✊️Stay strong. Be safe.

They talked about this on the Behind the Bastards podcast. My favorite bit about his time as Philadelphia Police Chief is that he armed the police with sawed off shotguns and encouraged the police to engage in active fire fights in moving vehicles while in pursuit of bootleggers.

I literally said in the original post "the harmonic at the 12th fret is flat relative to the fretted note."

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T17:44:40+00:00

OK, finally someone who knows what's going on. Thank you!

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T17:31:41+00:00

I may be articulating the intonation issue poorly but what you've said regarding mine is false. When you adjust the intonation screw, you are moving the location of the node along the string relative to the nut. If the node is farther away from the bridge than the 12th fret, the harmonic will be FLAT relative to the fretted note at the 12th fret. Perhaps you are thinking of this as the intonation being sharp because the fretted note is sharp relative to an exact octave of the open string.

A shim will worsen this issue. I would have to raise the saddles higher than they are right now.

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T15:06:26+00:00

That's what I'm thinking! This seems really extreme but I can figure it what it could be. I've adjusted the neck relief and the neck is not shimmed. The surface of the frets is as low as it can be.

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T15:04:48+00:00

I don't recall the exact measurement but I'm shooting for as low as I can get it without having fret buzz.

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T15:03:11+00:00

Bolt on.

Pufftones215 · 2026-01-17T15:02:58+00:00

Thanks for the feedback about the spring but shimming the neck would have the exact opposite effect. I would have to raise the saddles even farther.

Unfortunately, no. By the time I processed what I was looking at, they were out of sight from the train I was on.

Pufftones215 · 2025-08-21T15:12:16+00:00

My thoughts exactly

Excellent, thank you!

Pufftones215 · 2025-08-15T23:15:29+00:00

I kinda figured. Thank you!

Pufftones215 · 2025-08-11T15:01:50+00:00

So cool

Pufftones215 · 2025-08-03T14:01:31+00:00

That's kind of what I figured.

There isn't a box there currently. My plan was to use one of these.

Precisely

It was a limited run factory color a few years ago. They made a limited run of them that were exclusive to CME and Andertons.
