That's seriously cool. Any close up shots of how the strings go from the bigsby to the saddles? I looks like their might be a lack of string tension and break angle over the bridge. Especially if you're using light gauge strings on a shortscale.
It looks seriously cool, i usually don't like it when people mod a perfectly good shortscale but that looks taaaasty

We to aboard jagsonic! Super jealous of that baritone jag of yours. And the hello kitty strat too, I mean ffs it has pink dot inlay!
We have a thread stickied in the "All Other Guitars" forum for anything not 'shortscale'
Two last pics at home whith his "home partner" champion 600 moded, (12AX7A-C high gain TAD, 6L6 Tad (this works fine!!!), oxblood grill for more bright sound, 6'5'' jensen speaker....).
Champion 600 moded + musicmaster with hotrail pickup and bigsby make a good team to work at home and at the studio to record by tracks......
Added buzz stop, so the strings stay on the saddles, removed rhythm circuit cause I don't use it, removed the Tone Destroyer circuit cause I don't use it, dropped in a toggle in a Robert Original pickguard.
And the Jag stang went from this:
To This:
Upped the pots to 500k, removed bridge pickup, switches added robert Original pickguard. And Dwarfcraft lion sticker.
Also Glamour Shots of ThunderCats
For those who are not in the know, Robert Original put this together, too. CIJ jag body and Bronco bass neck forced to live in harmony.

+1.
That's one of the only jagstangs that appeals to me aesthetically. And that "ThunderCats" beast looks amazing. I'd love to hear it.
Here's where your mother sleeps, and here is the room where your brothers were born. Indentions in the sheets, where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore.
you wanna hear the thundercats? go on youtube and look at the fucking demo noob.
the pickguards are all rushed jobs, my neighbors lives in the make believe time so i can't run any sort of power tool during normal hours.
i actually have the batjag right now, i have been doing little ajustments here and there to try and get it where i want it, but i don't want to get too attached to it yet....
