Luckily they didn't angle the bridge too much, so it might not be too hard.

Another cool mod would be to put in a Jaguar selector so you can get all the pickup combinations.

On the other hand, it still seems kind of expensive, maybe too expensive to do mods.

No, there wasn't.

The Montego I and Montego II have regular archtops, the LTD has the German Carve.

O.k., I got it to work. It apparently uses third party cookies (originating from another website), which I block.

Just want to post this Rockinger page because they have a cool little drawing to represent shielding: Rockinger

But if you're in the UK, check this thread, I think most or all of the UK shops in the link have shielding: recommended parts suppliers

I like the first one, kind of like reggae but not exactly. Would sound good with a drum machine.

What I don't understand here is what happens if you ask to play it, seeing as you're clearly interested in buying it, play the fucking thing and It's not like he's going to search your pockets to see if you have that much money.decide it sucks and choose not to buy it.

I was just kidding, you don't have to make a video.

Anyways, if you really want to, what I do is use the built-in camera from a laptop. The video is crap quality, but the sound can be good (which is really more important for something like this).

I kind of like black/red burst, but it does look weird on a V with no pickguard.

That's you playing? Wow, you really rip.

I didn't know there is a market for naturally aged 1980s parts. It's obviously not original from the guitar because it's gold.

The Super Distortion might do o.k., even though it's still being made. Although it might fetch more on the guitar if you decide to sell it. Nice guitar.

Actually when you played that Bryan Adams song I first thought it was "The Wave" by Balaam and the Angel.

The shape of that would actually look quite good if it wasn't for the odd bump by the bottom strap button. Otherwise a few details keep it from working, like the look of the neck and the pickups. As a concept it's actually quite nice. Sort of a Mockingbird/Explorer hybrid. It would certainly be mor...

I'm not really sure I understand that picture. It looks like the scratchplate is placed wrong and goes off the top of the guitar.
