Is that a humbucker for guitar or bass? Do you think it makes a difference? I'm wondering what to put in my Bronco.

The most important thing I've ever lost during a gig was a bass player. But I refuse to carry a spare one!

I've had a SD 'Hot' in the bridge and a Quarter Pound in the neck, but the QP is far to big and muddy for me, I wouldn't recomend it, at least in the neck.

Hey, I don't know if you've seen, but there is a Squier Duo-Sonic on Gumtree for £100, its old than the current CVs, but looks cooler I reckon.
I'd love it, but I don't need it.

This is quite possible the most beautiful thing I've seen. I'm not so keen on the final outcome.

At the same time I have to admire the way you've made something totally precious, and then ...

this is brilliant, such a great colour scheme, its got so much life! like it could play its self.

That bass has loads of style, neck looks great. I'd do the minimum to sort it out. Very cool.

That looks great, well done. I'm desperate to do the same thing on a bronco I've seen in the local pawn shop. Just scraping the cash together.

I think you've got a great strategy of starting with the raw materials of something that will be beautiful; as default!

One of my problems has been trying to be too clever; over complicate things with 'originality' and desire, and then get depressed and give up when its not what I thought it could ...

Yeah, I prefer the mustang curve at the top.

Is it me, or is silver one's body slightly less rounded than the others? or is it the light?

That's a cool shape with a special character, small but punchy!

That Framus is insane, its the patterned scratchplate that make your eyes go

If anyone is interested in the wiring, the 3 lower switches are on/off for the pups, like a Cyclone I guess. but the upper switch puts the neck&middle in series like a humbucker, which is cool. Although its not a separate circuit, coz I've not connected the upper vol&tone to it yet, but i think I ...

Now its looking more like this; with a temporary cardboard scratchplate while I decide on the best position before I get a tort one made.

That was when I installed a rotary switch, but then decided I missed ...

I'm in the process of putting strat pups in my Jag. Previously its been looking like this, with Quarter Pounder and a Hot SDs.

Just put 11s on after years of living with 9s, don't know why, because now it feels like a much much better guitar.

very cool.

I bet we don't see from the original post for another 6 months
bet lost. you can pay up tonight when i melt your face off with my liquid bass fuzz.
