Have you tried skipping the virtual tone control altogether? I'd be interested in your impression of that same setup without any tone modification at all.
Oh yes, what is that neck wood? Padouk or bubinga? Or something else?
My first Warmoth build is complete! Woohoo!
(Actually, it has been complete for a month. I just finally got around to taking pictures.)
Warmoth Jazz body (alder, with wenge thumbrests)
Warmoth Jazz neck (bubinga, with wenge fretboard)

If I want to use a hipshot A type bridge, which routing pattern should I choose in the Warmoth online builder?
Hipshot A has 4 mounting holes and Warmoth doesn't offer that configuration. Gotoh 201 has 5 (fender standard, Badass II, Babicz), and Schaller 463 and Badass III have 3 mounting holes.
