Oh damn, that is nice.

really well executed, and i bet it sounds awesome. i love that you used a clipboard too–it's too bad you didn't leave the clipping parts, could've been a good place to keep picks or sheet music

the pickup and bridge situation reminds me ever so slightly of bender with a beard:

I absolutely love all the Bootstrap pickups I've bought! How do you find the middle position? Do they blend nicely? Regardless, it looks awesome!

Thanks!

Thanks! That would definitely be a different vibe.

I just finished putting it together and strung it up for the first time yesterday. I'm realizing I still need to tweak the pickup heights a good bit as I added too much material under the neck pickup such that it's higher and hotter than it should be. Once I get the balance right I think it's going to be pretty great.

I posted this in the for sale section but seems appropriate to post it here too. The body was made by our very own Deedpoll & it turned out amazingly well. I have been tempted to upgrade those pickups to the new Fender WRHB's but they aren't cheap.

This was my main gigging guitar for like 5 years. I kinda miss it. 24.75" scale with dual Mojotone WRHBs. Killer setup.

Damn, that's the business

You who have firebird or gold foil pickups, I salute thee

Really a superb looking guitar. I've come across this pic many times, and it usually makes me stop my scrolling for a good 5-10 minutes so I can just admire it.

Super sharp! Chrome + IBM =


Are Jagstangs allowed? Here comes one anyway. IBM Jagstang with GFS Surf90 pickups. The neck is a 26-15/16” short scale to baritone conversion, tuned to C#.

To quote Seinfeld, I'll allow it. Mostly because that guitar is amazing. Love the baritone neck conversion.

Awesome! What do all the switches do (assuming the toggle switches between the pickups)?

It's not as complicated as one might think really. The lower toggle is obviously a pickup selector and the little switch beside it engages/disengages the upper plate. On there is a separate strangle for each pickup and a master 'dark/rhythm' switch' that affects both. All of which are totally superfluous and simply because why not. The ability to strangle the neck on its own and then mix it with the full-range bridge pickup seems to tighten it up a lot when using gain/distortion/fuzz though which will be handy.

And also, more importantly, because it looks cool
