Yeah, Doog'll just order that turquoise finish, hardtail bridge, lipstick pickups, pearloid pickguard, bound rosewood neck with F tuners, bullet trussroad and vintage string trees and swap it over. Good thinking.

[Doog]

I'll phone up my luthier. He can do that shit for 4 real, for real.

Thanks to DGNR8's RahBro covers, some cursing and a drill, here it is.



Stock white scratchy- the guitar had a Floyd Rose put in it before I bought it, and then a "vintagey" bridge put back in. Presumably due to the routing for the Floyd, the "new" bridge had to be put a little far forward, hence the hacked up "stock" scratchy. It just about intonates, so it's okay.

It's not a thing of beauty, but a thing of ROCKENING.

Just need to get a proper black 5-way tip and maybe some new knobs, not sold on the current ones yet. Am also thinking about finishing the headstock in shiny black too..

[Mike]

I actually really like it. Don't worry about the shite around the bridge (what is that in the pickups?), it still looks kool.

Do the robroe's make it sond kool?

[Doog]

They wouldn't sit flush with the pickup base as God intended, possibly due to the staggered polepieces, it was hard to tell. Tried pushing the polepieces down but them bitches are glued. But no worries, I got 'em in and they sound and function fine.

And yes, they add supermojo powers, I'm gonna need to draw arrows all over it later with a Tipp-ex pen.

[Mike]

hahaha.. neck tone.

wood tone.

ffs.

[Doog]

Thumbs up for the black Strat dials, even if I did only find 2 "volumes" and one "tone"..

I think the space between the pup and cover is making the guitar slightly resonant, if you knock on the scratchplate with some high gain going on, it definately "thunks" more than it used to. Hopefully won't cause any microphonic feedback problems..

[BobArsecake]

I've some spare black Strat tone knobs that I'll send you if I can find them, if you like.

[Doog]

Thanks dude, but it's cool. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

[More Cowbell]

WOW! IT HAS 2 VOLUMES???

DOES ONE GO TO 11?

[Doog]

They both do, so I can actually go to 22..

[Mike]

I believe that is termed going airbourne
