I'm going to buy a Warmoth Star body, I'm looking for a Danelectro neck or a copy.

What pickup should I use, this is a 1980 VH copy I'm building, I want the sound of the Destroyer from WACF. I want a single humbucker.

I'm going to try a Sophia 292 tremolo on it.

I want the neck profile below the headstock to be the same as the wolfgang special asymmetrical with the same measures.

I'll use schaller tuners, anything else I need ?

Or should I buy a used 2014 ?

Thank you in advance for pointers and guidance.

I always say only build a guitar if you want to build a guitar. That is, you want the building process not just the guitar. I you just want to have/play the guitar, just buy it.
 
You guys all got some killer guitars here . I’ve not played them much . I need to
 
I like that newer Kramer Lzzy Hale star guitar, but at half the price. :ROFLMAO:
Jackson Warrior; lots of price-points with the different series. I have an X series in Ferrari Red with maple board. Unfortunately, it didn't get the upgraded pickups like the X series Rhoads with Duncans, so I shifted to the Rhoads models...though the Warrior is more comfortable when sitting you have a couple of options.

I love the warrior and xiphos and pretty much anything that will poke your eye out :ROFLMAO: Almost ended up with that ash signature model seven string, but it's weird using even scale for me now on ergs and didn't really want the floyd at the time. Went with the Ormsby Metal X, and absolutely love it, though a little neck heavy. I really wish more companies like Jackson and Ibanez would offer more multiscale models, tbh. There are few options for pointy ones until you start going boutique.
 
Yeah that thing is sick as hell :love:
I know, but $1500 or $1600 for MIC with a bolt on neck isn't :ROFLMAO:
Have always love her signature guitars, she has some of the best explorers.

agree. always liked pointy guitars but the options are limited until you go boutique or custom shop. I thought about Kiesel many times but never purchased one. I'm at the point where I like what I have and have what I like...for now.

I eventually need an ormsby x or v in my life those things are so my style
