NGD: 70's Furniture Style Jazzmaster

Post by rank » Sat Jan 08, 2022 5:43 pm

I'm not really sure what you call it but my guitar tech calls it that so it seemed fitting. The body was Deed Poll made (& gorgeous) & I got the all rosewood neck & black anodized pick guard from fellow forumites. I put Fralin hum cancelling pickups & Mastery bridge & trem. It matches my floor! ImageImageImageImageImage

The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

That is really incredible! Brown is such an underrated color, especially for guitars. :? :-*

Wow!! Looks awesome, Chris! Really proud to have been a part of this one. Love the white switches and knobs in particular, the contrast is great.

Did you use grain filler on the body? You got a great match with the neck!

You could call it a Harrison Rosewood JM or just straight up Amazing. Great work.

@MattheK-it is around 9lbs. It is not light for sure but it is actually roasted ash. Only the neck is actually all rosewood. I asked my guitar tech to make it looks like rosewood & I think he did a fantastic job.

@Dan-I would love to take credit for any of it but it was my guitar tech & I am not sure if he filled any of the grain of not before staining.
