- Roasted Swamp Ash is now available on Warmoth guitar and bass bodies. You will find it in our In-Stock Showcase, and as an available wood choice in our Custom Builder tool. The guitar used in this demo has a Roasted Swamp Ash body and a genuine Fender MIM Telecaster® neck. The bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan Five-Two Tele® Bridge, and the neck pickup is a Seymour Duncan Five-Two Tele® Neck.
The clear finishes on these roasted bodies look unbelievable.
Mediterranean Sundance. Al DiMeola.
Nice.
I enjoy your videos; especially ones with guitar geek deep cuts.
You've also motivated me to update the Warmoth Strat I built 10 years ago with a neck geared towards minimal wear and stability; roasted maple with double expanding truss rod, 6100 stainless steel frets, and locking tuners. Super excited about it!
That’s the coolest swamp ass guitar I’ve ever seen
It's got the stank! :)
Awesome. Like all great art, you are struck with surprise and amazement; but it somehow looks exactly like it should. It seems to jog a long forgotten memory.
Those are just crazy beautiful...
OMG, that Roasted Swamp Ash tele is gorgeous!!!!!
I just received a transparent blue burst roasted swamp ash it is so much better than I could have imagined. Super dark almost black/blue fading to transparent. Beautiful! Thank you!
I have build a S Ttpe Guitar from roasted swamp ash and maple and it sounds unbelievable great. It is by far my best sounding guitar. Thank you very much guys and girls from Warmoth.
Mediterranean Sundance...nice.
Might have to pick up a roasted Jazzcaster body to go with my roasted maple tele neck...
Aaron, you covered the subject very well. Thank You for the info. Blue Max Stringed Instrument Repair
That tele was so gorgeous
Oh my lord, look at those contours ❤️! Btw Aaron plays always different riffs clearly so we can make judgment! Thanks dude! 🙏🏼
That is fascinating . I did assume the super dried wood would take more stain but darker WOW !!
Great video!!.
What's great with terrified wood is it doesn't react to humidity .
I think it’s torrefied. maybe.
How can it? It’s scared stiff.
@@Hexspa 😂😂😂😂
I’m late to the party but great info as always, very useful 👍🏻. Thank you!
Amazing company and unique!!! gathering money for my replacement CBS strat neck and am looking forward :D
The roasting seems to have taken the "treble bite" out of the tele. Really nice. I've really grown to enjoy all of your presentations and comparisons. Thanks for the effort and content.
Go to woodprix if you'd like to know how to make it easy. Good solution for every woodworker.
Good. 💝💝💝
Oh my that’s just beautiful. One of the titans of the Tele is a guy called Bill Kirtchen, who has a solid pine Kelly Telecaster, made of hundred year old pine from New York buildings.
I love Bill! Especially when he plays with Redd.
Warmoth Guitar Products is a great company with great products.
Usually I prefer Spartan and unfinished instruments, but this one is so beautiful
Mediterranean Sundance - Al Di Meola!
Paco de Lucía indeed
Man I love my decision to go warmoth even more...lol not cuz I got roasted swapash, but hearing arron play mediterranean sundance just makes me feel like im in good hands. Cant wait!
I love the satin finish on that roasted body
Nice sound
I think I need a Jazzmaster body like this with a black burst edge, would look absolutely bonkers with a rosewood neck
Christmas is my favorite time of year... chestnuts roasting on an open fire. So roasting has been a big part of my life for a long time, so I guess this would be a perfect fit.
Do you give tours? I would love to see your factory.
I want one just like that with Gold hardware!
Yeah, that's mah swampass guitar, you darn kids!
The Di Meola riff!!
it looks so good I want to eat it
Was a grain filler used on that body before the clear-coat was applied?
Poplar strat. I wish you guys had some budget friendly finishes available like a light satin ,clear, one color stain or burst thin satin .thanks. Btw I've been buying your necks for years. They are always trouble free
Man I love roasted swamp ass! Smells bad put plays great 😂
haha '69 was LEGIT! I love the look of that dark one. Looks better darker, imo. Those bodies are probably what, $400? give or take.
I bought an ash body the other day for $70. BUT GUISE.. IT'S SWAMP ASH. AND THEY HEATED IT. HEAT IS EXPENSVIE
Yes
received my new unfinished chambered roasted alder strat body with roasted flame maple top yesterday. It weighs 2.3 pounds!!!
I'm looking at a similar build. Did this guitar end up neck heavy at all? Thanks
I love the look of the clear satin, but what is on the finished Tele that you're playing? That gloss finish is amazing!
Better mark this video NSFW. My wife, from across the room, thought you were saying "roasted swamp ass." I, however, thought you were doing great...please continue....
Be neat if you finished a Strat in sunfire gold lacquer over clear coat, that way when the gold finish cracks and wears away over time (or you relic it) this dark wood is peeking out from the gaps in the bright finish.
I love it!! I'd put a roasted maple neck on that strat with a pau ferro fretboard.
Call me when the grilled humbuckers are ready. I'm starvin' for some extra juicy tones. LOL
I am nearly done boiling the bass strings if anybody wants it.
@IT'SME I will need more ham then. I will just hit the Rhodes and go to the shops.
@IT'SME well here is your ham. Also here is some roasted maple. Be careful as there are still some bone nuts in it.
Don't forget to stir the copy wire! I hate it when it sticks to the bottom!
@@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342
Right into the tone pot pie.😄
Kinda kills the whole " Does the type of wood affect a guitar's sound?" debate! I've always believed it does and you've just proved it. Beautiful guitars, excellent presentation and some really great playing!
A Keeper Of Odd Knowledge Totally bro! But you know what else makes a difference? The shape of the guitar! The material that the knobs are made of! The age of the wood! The material the pick is made of! The amount of oxygen in the room! Whether someone in the room farted recently will also affect the tone! Also, the position of the sun, the planets, stars and even galaxies in the sky will also affect the tone! The horoscope sign of the Guitar Player will also affect the tone! But yeah, totally dood. Da wood affects the tone too! In fact, we all know we must pay $18,000 for that fancy trans-neptunian wood in order to get that very special sound! I mean, blind tests??? Give me a break!! Yeah, yeah, I know... we have all fucking failed it and they’ve shown that tonewood makes as much difference as the mass of my cock does on the orbit of Messier 35 but... that’s just nonsense!! Of course wood matters!! Fuck Science and blind tests! All hail cognitive bias! Let’s all spend $50,000 on fancy pretentious wood!
The clear is a satin finish, correct? Looks great!!
Aaron, would love it if we could get the J bass body in the original mid 60 thickness of 1.625" instead of 1.75". Can you run one of those through the planner for me, back side up :-)
ROASTED FLAMED MAPLE TELE NECKS,THE STUFF THAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF.THANKS VISA👈🏻
With it being more rigid, it’s more stable but is it also more prone to cracking?
Either for bodies or necks
Hey Aaron, what is the strat neck behind? Dark rosewood fretboard on rosewood neck (finished in satin)? Something else? Thanks
those look sick without finish.
do they even require any, or you can rock it naked, like roasted maple neck?
have you tried roasting alder?
It's probably a good idea to at least give it some oil to protect the wood.
Cool job guys!...guess I like the roasted bass bodies....and the lesser weight is very welcome too! :-)
I decided to buy roasted neck and body, definitely worth it compared to off the shelf custom guitars
Are those finished in straight clear poly, or do they have added color?
does this roasted swamp need a clear coat at least?
Hey there how much is the weight difference if I order in basswood vs roasted alder or roasted swamp ash? Thanks
does roasted alder also get dark like that with clear coat?
nvm it does
What type of pick-ups are on the brown tele?
Is it possible to order at Warmoth a body and a neck that would be able to be glued in (set neck construction)?
Ughhhhhhh, sweet heavens, I’d say, “Shut up and take my money,” but I don’t HAVE any money! 😳😬😝😫😩😫
GORGEOUS.
You really should post a few pictures of transparent finish swatches. This is pretty damn different...
Does anyone know how roasted swamp ash would look with the transparent vintage tint? And what about regular swamp ash?
What is the material for the telecaster pickguard? Vintage or white pearl?
I love that but still don't get why you can't offer this on alder or mahogany or other wood species like Musikraft for example.
Is there an option that gives you even more darker roast of wood? Medium roast, light roast etc.
Wow Mediterranean Sundance into Roxanne 🤘
He kind of glossed over the tonal improvements of the roasting process. It crystallizes the resin in the wood as if it was much older. Many have said it’s like a 50-year-old piece of wood. Plus it smells like Carmel corn whet you work it.
Could you guys use the heat treatment on mahogany or maple?
What about cutting/modifying a roasted swamp ash body? Is the wood too brittle/hard? Is the roasting process done before or after you machine the body?
The wood is roasted before it is cut, and the color goes all the way through. This means if you cut or sand it, it will still always show the nice roasted color.
Now that would fit in my oven, I just need a recipe. lol
Is the telecaster that you demo'd for sale?
Nice nod to Al DiMeola.
Waiting patiently for the Stir fry version, Have guys lost your mind? LOL
How long do you roast it to get this shade?
clear satin swamp ash body? SOLD
People just like the word swamp ash. Fun to say, fun to look at. Doesn't effect tone
If I order a roasted swamp ash telecaster and I choose "clear satin" as the finish option I will get a body like the darker strat body shown before the final playing demonstration ? Sorry for the question just want to be sure since these do cost a lot for a student ! Thanks a lot !
The wood darkens the same no matter what body shape you order. So if you go with the clear coat satin finish it will look like the clear satin finish of the strat body in the video.
rip paco de lucia
Do you roast the body blanks first and then cut the bodies or roast the bodies after they are cut out? Is the color change on the surface or all the way through?
Wood gets roasted before being cut, so the color goes all the way through.
Keep thinking he is saying swamp ass 😂
@Club Soda Mine smelled like garlic.
Anything to get the brown sound.
Roasted in the Mediterranean Sun... dance.
Are there any official sellers for southeast Asian countries like The Philippines?
4:01 got my first real six string
Boy I wish it was a warmoth instead
Oh, that Mediterranean Sundance was a pleasant surprise!
Will a roasted swamp ash body need a finish, or can it remain raw like the roasted maple necks?
DiMeola, FTW! RSA does not require a finish, but I would probably at put some kind of oil on it to keep out dirt.
Do you happen to know if applying oil will result in a color change like the clear finish causes, or is there an oil that won't darken the wood? My original plan was a swamp ash tele body with a maple neck and a walnut pickguard/control cover with gold hardware. I'm looking to keep the body's wood lighter than the walnut pickguard for color contrast. With RSA becoming available, I figured roasted maple neck and roasted swamp ash body would be a nice combo.
I haven't seen an RSA body with an oil finish, but my guess is that it would still darken it.
Add balance to the sounds.
Do you offer chambered roasted swamp ash?
Yep. You can choose Roasted Swamp Ash as the body wood on any guitar or bass body in our custom builder.....whether it's solid, chambered, semi-hollow, or carved top.
For the finish is it Nitro you showed us? I believe fender uses Nitro on the 52 reissues of the roasted swamp ash.
Warmoth does nitro finish on our necks only. Our bodies are finished in thin poly.
Warmoth Guitar Products Do you think nitro would darken my roasted ash body?
@@liljuanito123 those Roasted AVRI's use a thin layer of nitro and they almost have that unbuffered thin skin feel. You can do that yourself with nitrocellulose aerosol cans.
@@SandeepSingh-zc5sh thanks! I built the tele version. The body came out awesome with the nitro. It darken beautifully, also the neck uses poly which it darken too.
How about northern ash for a strat
Fret buzzzzz?
Looks better as a satin finish. The high gloss looks like those old laminate coffee tables...
Isn't roasted swamp ash that not-so-fresh feeling you get when working outside in the heat??
wow never knew Holcomb worked for Warmoth.
What's the finish on that brown tele?
Clear finish
Transparent Brown finish?
The color on the two finished bodies in this video is "Clear"....though it looks like Transparent Brown, doesn't it? That's why I made a point to say that you should be aware when ordering transparent colors and bursts that they will turn out darker than if you were shooting the same color over regular Swamp Ash.
if you put transparent brown over the roasted swap, will the colour be EVEN darker you think? @@warmoth
Would a Danish Oil result in the darker, koa-like 'Clear' finish color you show in the example?
Most likely. Try it, and let us know! :)
I did, and it does. It looks great. I am building a 6-string, fretless Gecko and it really looks great. I also like the fact that it's looking like the overall weight is going to be less than 10lbs. Very rare for an extended range bass.
you should upload a video of the result, im very interested XD
0:45 what song did he played?
sound familiar
That is called Mediterranean Sundance, by Al DiMeola.
thank you
I would of put a roasted maple neck on that guitar
Can I get one in (H-H)
And the hair? Roasted or frosted?
No Roasted Mahogany?
