new ss.org guitar build for ???

Post by hotrodperlmutter »

let's hash out what we want to do with this guitar + 2 (or more) p90's. and who for.
► Show Spoiler
robroe says mickie, and i'm totally down with that, assuming he still plays electrics.

if we decide to just do two humbuckers (or two hum size p90's), rodvonbon has a junked up chinese jagmaster we can totally gank the guard from (assuming the offer is still open).

rhode island is neither a road, nor an island. discuss.

EDIT: pollllllllll

I voted 2 because, well, it's better than 1.

Have we got pickups for it yet? Aaages ago I posted two P-90's to robroe for the dots gutiar, and they didn't fit or something. Rob might still have them going spare (although, given he's just moved house and all, they could be difficult to get at for him).

They were taken from a Gould Stormbird (a firebird ripoff). The guitar was shit, but the pickups always received good reviews online. I never played it having bought it for £20 as a fixer upper and then gutting it.

the 3 P90's in the last photo were sent to me to put in the Dotsmaster, but then other people sent me real jazzmaster pickups for it. it was agreed that these P90's would go into the next shortscale build.

#1 I CANT REMEMBER WHO SENT ME THE FUCKING THINGS...?

#2 WHAT THE FUCK SHORTSCALE LETS MAKE A GUITAR FOR SOMEONE, THAT WAS ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO FFS

This is all going on in too many threads. Can a mod merge the threads? I reckon keep the content here, but make the announcement in the Pub just that, an announcement pointing to this thread and locked. That way no wires get crossed and we get this done.

Same body.

3 pickups FTW. Can't beat the sound of having a middle pickup.

I say 3 P-90s (I mean... jazzmaster pickups :wink: :roll: ). make the 3 way switch go between neck and bridge p'ups and the rhythm switch control the middle pickup.
