It's harder than Hulk Hogan - NO TRUSS ROD! Really thick 'V' neck, but small in scale and nut width.
Which era Hulk are we talking?

The HARDEST one.

hah true enough.

If I eventually move to Edinburgh it's going to be even more weird. Especially when I crowbar my way into Black International.
Do it, then i won't have to play guitar. I actually had to check the laundry basket when you posted those pics a couple of weeks back, we have some extremely similar bedsheets. Not exactly the same though, thankfully.

Yours are most likely more fancy than our IKEA ones.

I don't make those decisions, if it was up to me they'd be ninja turtle ones.

Catwhisker T-buckers. Can't honestly tell you what they sound like as not wired up yet. Eventually you'll be able to toggle it so you can have the top three strings on one pup and the other three on the other pup and vice versa. Don't know what use that will be but thought I'd do it anyway. Might try and get it so the bottom three can be routed through one pup to a seperate jack for Local-H style bass stuff through octave down pedal

@ Wrrrsssss - BWAHAHHAHAHHAHA!

You guys have some awesome collections! I only got one shorty. I used to have a comp Mustang. One day I will have another. I plan on getting a couple more short scales and maybe a Tele Custom. This place has been great source of info. I love looking at the gear you guys post

Nice guitars and thanks cobascis

. "Black shit" = hot rails

. They were installed in the guitar when I bought it. They sound pretty good to me so I haven't bothered changing them out yet.

Thanks! I am thinking a Mustang or Jagstang and another Tele about does it for me. This is the second Jagmaster I have owned. I got rid of the first one without giving it much of a chance. I am glad I got another. I always regretted selling that one so quick without checking it out. This one is a really solid guitar. I intended on making a project out of it. A friend did a set up on it for me and I honestly like it the way it is. I guess it may stay stock since I don't really have a reason to change anything

Both the traded one, and the current, are the run being made now. I have never played one of the Vista series. I hear great things about them though. My mods planned were to put a p90 in the neck and duncan distortion in the bridge. I was going to paint it black as well. Tuners and a bridge were on the list. But it really dont need anything.

Yea I was actually thinking about getting a jagmaster since they look pretty cool and to do some modding experiments on my own to start getting familiar with it. However, I heard that the MIC Jagmasters (which I think is the one you have) uses a slightly smaller sized humbucker in which it doesn't fit regular sized ones. This is just something I heard and am not for sure about but I don't know if you know more than me. If you decide to do some mods make a thread about it as I would be interested.

Mine is the MIC version. The opening in the pickguard wont fit covered humbuckers without widening it a bit. Regular humbuckers will fit no problem. It doesn't take very much effort to get the covered ones in though. Just a little sanding in the corners of the openings. Dude I absolutely love your Mustang. I bet those hot rails are awesome in it.

Thanks man yea they do sound good especially for what I play. After what you said I might have to look into that silver sparkle jagmaster near me.

They seem like great guitars.

Nice guitars, just out of curiosity is that jag vintage or a reissue? I like the jag/jm trem that you installed on your stang as well.
