'grats, d00d. Though it's had its issues (bridge pickup crapped out out of NOWHERE about 1.5 years into my owning it), my '08 Jetglo 4003 I received for my 21st birthday a few years ago is a gift I will be forever grateful to my parents for. Love them clanky tones!

Sheesh, dudes. I wasn't the wisest with my dollaz, I get it.

my only question is will a mastery bridge work on a 9.5" radius?

Among other mods, a Mastery bridge is getting installed on my Blacktop JM and I should have it back by the end of the week. Will post my thoughts. I'm pretty stoked to see the results. aren't those like $165?....thats crazy money for a bridge on a $450 guitar :shock: but I am curious to hear your r...

That finish is fuckin' deeeeeelicious. Congrats!

I'm 6'8, and I actually had no idea how big Jazzmasters were before buying one. It fits me perfectly. Love how SGs sound, but they just feel too tiny and that fast, thin lil' neck often felt cramped for my huge mitts.

Gorgeous, sir, and GREAT to hear re: the P-Rails/Triple Shot setup. After reading this thread a few weeks back I copy-catted you and ordered the same setup to replace the stock bridge pickup. It's getting setup with those and other mods over the weekend, super-stoked! Thank you for the idea, I'd nev...

check out that other guys thread where he tears his down (for whatever reason). FWIW... I'm tearing it down because the electronics have been mucked with. Trying to atone for the previous owner's sins. Bummed to hear that, but may I request confirmation/denial re: the possibility of using a regular...

FUCK PICKGAURDIAN.

First, I was like, "Aight."

KILLING ME WONT BRING BACK YOUR GODDAMN HONEY!!!!

Then, I was like LOL

Well, it just arrived here and I'm already stoked on it despite a weak-looking bridge.

As for the moneys, please know that almost the entire cost of the aftermarket parts was covered by a birthday cash injection by my folks...I had no idea, I bought the guitar online a few hours before. Just sayin'.

Hmm. Really? I've ordered a Mastery bridge. That making anything different re: the bridge stuff you mentioned? I just want a black pickguard, not mint green. Only I'm on the fence about spray painting it and not willing to pay the aforementioned fee to the Pickguardian guy. I also wish I had some wa...

Final question, I promise! I hit up the dude behind Pickguardian and he said a custom job would be $60 plus shipping. At this point, I'd be fine with buying a black standard Jazzmaster PG. Would that work? It seems the only difference between them and a Blacktop PG is the lack of switch holes on the...

I have ordered a bridge P-Rails . Guess I better hit up the Seymour Duncan forum to get things nailed down for sure. Cheers, all, and let me know if you have further input. Much thanks!

This is a TS-2B, which is for bridge, but I've seen it sold in a set with the TS-2N (the neck equivalent) geared towards Les Paul. Are the dimensions any different? Should I get this one specifically? http://cgi.ebay.com/SEYMOUR-DUNCAN-TRIPLE-SHOT-TS-2B-MOUNTING-RING-LP-CRM-/280525842646?pt=Guitar_A...

Okay, trigger pulled on a P-Rails bridge HB!

Aren't there bridge or neck models for the Triple Shot? It seems that it's mostly designed with Les Pauls in mind...I SHOULD be buying the bridge model, yeah?

Okay, after watching demo videos of both the Triple Shot and the P3, I'm pretty interested in both. The only part I'm confused at is knowing whether or not the pickups will be in or out of phase with each other. What does this mean and how is it determined? Thank you all for all your help and puttin...

..what's that? Also, how does one switch through the modes? Is it something like a push-pull pot, or would additional routing have to happen?

Good deal.

Again-- SD P-Rail pickup in the bridge? Thoughts, anyone?

Well, just for the sake of having versatility...what are you thoughts on the Seymour Duncan P-Rails pickup mentioned in the other thread, given its apparent ability to do humbucker, single-coil and P90 tones?
