  • "Converting" a Warrior to a Warthog?

    Okay, let me try this again. I'm interested in a Warthog, but since these seem rarer than a virgin in a trailer park, let me toss this out.

    Would there be any danger in cutting the tips of a Warrior to make it a Warthog body?

    Warrior:



    Warthog:



    Just a note: I'm not so much interested in this specific graphic as I am in the body style. I feel that I could do my own war plane graphic on it.

    So would there be any danger in doing this?

    Jesus Christ, that's disgusting, but eh it's your guitar, so who am I to judge?

    I think the main points that would prove a problem is the bottom left horn, and the top right, due to the control route and the strap jack. I'm pretty sure the control route doesn't go all the way to the bottom of the horn, so that doesn't pose much of a threat.
    Other than that, doesn't look to be too different.

      What do you mean by "danger?" Like physical harm from a saw cut?! Or damage to the guitar? A skilled wood worker could easily modify it, and paint it to look original. But if you aren't experienced like that, don't try it your self on such an expensive guitar.

            I'll do it to my WRXT body and let you know how it came out.

              I like the Warthog look, so Powertube, go for it! can't see you will have any problems, just dont saw through any wires, and if you do just reconnect them, im sure Newc's will turn out well if you dont want to jump straight in

                There's no fucking way I would mod any of my four Warriors like that. If you must have a Warthog, at least take it to a professional... or hassle YAO to sell his CS Warthog.

                  Do it! It's a huge improvement over the Warrior shape.

                      Warriors should be left uncircumsized.

                          This seems to be a minority opinion.

                            You are the one with the minority opinion!
