THE OSG TWIN PROJECT THREAD: 2 COUNTRIES, 2 JAG BODIES...

Post by PJazzmaster » Tue Nov 17, 2015 4:30 am

It starts with 2 pre-CBS Jag bodies... both come from the mighty Mr. andrewaward! One sits with member raphaël and the other one with me.

- raphaël's body is a beautiful beast
- mine is a blemished beauty

I guess we both have a similar ideas how to combine them with non Jag necks

Let's start from here. I got rid of many dust collecting pedals, various parts and an amp just to make this project happen But it has to happen

My project wont be 100% vintage correct since I will use some newer parts as well. But who cares (I don't)

more soon, very soon...

An update will follow soon. Something is taking a bit longer than expected.

maybe a killswitch, if I decide to wire it that way. If not, it's just there to look cool :fp: :ph34r:

Got my neck back today, after 4 weeks of waiting. New bone nut and a refret stewmac #148's.
Yes, this is my favorite neck ever, shortscale + slabboard = :-* :?
