Wish I could enter them both! It’ll just be the Jazzblaster, though.

Mascis JM as the base
Reissue WRHB rewound by a buddy of mine so they don’t sound like butt now
SneakyT guard
AV65 Trem
Aluminum tip I took off of a Kahler arm
Matching headstock with the (now regretted) 70s decal

It’s my favorite guitar I’ve ever owned. It feels like a fucking million dollars in my hands and I’ll love it forever

This is my favorite JMJM of all!
Also 70s decals are the best, even though it wouldn‘t have needed „Fender“ on ir, that‘s true.

This definitely inspires me to finish my blue one.
Heavy bad boy for sure.

Right, seeing as we're only 6 short of 32, now opening it up to 2nd entrants.

Same rules as before, but if you've already entered one guitar, you can have one more.

i'll throw in the plexi monster then. *the noticable thud of a 6.2kg guitar*

And I can officially declare entries are closed!

We've had 33, excluding the withdrawn couple.

As 4 were 2nd entries, I'll put them all into a play-off for the final 3 spots, so nobody misses out entirely.

Maybe a bonus competition as well...

Aaaahhh. That was a tough call between three of my guitars. But I feel this is the one most suitable for the task, and one of my favorite guitar photos on my phone!

(EDIT cause I forgot:) Entry 3
Heavily modified Vintage Modified Squier Jaguar:

bought used for 230€ - only to host the Surf90s I loved so much. Also I always wanted to know what a Lipstick behind the bridge sounded like... and this wouldn‘t have worked on a CP Jag due to the limited space...
Curious if you could point me to a wiring diagram for the behind the bride pickup? Have a squire routed for a lipstick behind the bridge thats ready for assembly but not certain how to accomplish.
Thanks!
