Glad you liked it, Rox. Nice meeting a fellow, local offseter and shortscaler. Regards.

Wow! That sounds heavenly. And cool demo to boot.

Thank you very much, chaps. It's been a fun project. And I should have posted this in the projects forum in the first place. Noob eh?

Finally finished my poor man's Marr Jaguar yesterday. Couple of issues with the wiring that I'm trying to work out. The 4th position and the horizontal slider switch won't engage for some reason.

True that.

That looks super cool. Dibs should you end up not liking it.

Hot bloody dayum! They look so freakin' cool!

What did you use to strip the neck?

Thanks, bro. Can't remember the name, but it came in a spray can. Very mild, as it claimed that it can be used indoors. I'll see if ...

Thanks, bro. The neck has a modern C profile and a 9.5 radius. Not thick at all, pretty comfortable for my small hands.

Nice! "All's well that ends well", so to speak. Congratulations.
How much is Ishibashi charging for shipping nowadays, if you don't mind me asking?

That looks amazing! I love it.

White rollers = painted black ones?

The whole thing is classy as hell. Very nice job. I tend to find MIJ CAR Jags to be the most vanilla of the lot, but you've really shaped that into something nice with only a few cosmetic changes. I'm impressed.

Cheers, mate. Yes, they were painted white. I ...
