A Bigsby would be super sweet, but I'm going to leave it stock....Although I'm considering some 500K or 1Meg pots.  I guess it has 250K stock.

The neck pickup is a tad muddy for my tastes.  The bridge could use a little brightening up, too.  We'll see.  I'm going to give it a good chance, and take it to my next gig(along with my main JM, of course.).

1 M pots!- I got that for my WR re-issues in the Poomaster - gets that hambacker sound to jangle!
Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

I'm totally gasing right now, but the fact that I've 5 euros in my wallet holds me down.. 8)

Watch the Bay. I see 'em go for $500 all the time there. There really has been a glut of them to flood the market, so the used price has been driven down to $450-550. I picked mine up for $400 (in almost mint condition), but I'm a lamer who compulsively trolls craigslist every day.  ::) ;)

I saw a Walnut one on my local CL for $400.  That was a long time ago, and I was trying to save for my IBM JM.  Haven't seen any good deals on Walnut ones on Ebay, or otherwise lately.  :'(

So I bought a new one. ::)
