jag/jazzy bridge
i had a mustang bridge in it for a while, but my low E kept popping out..
me and TOM bridges don't get along very well. historically. except on Les Pauls.. (i have two.. i can say that... well a harmony and an epiphone..)

see, i'm tempted to think this is a myth, as my coronado has hotter pickups than any other vintage fender i've owned (and i've had quite a few now). maybe mine is some kind of circus freak.
well, i cant compare with other coronados, but my silver pick ups they are not as punchym, sharp etcetera then now my 66 XII. Ok to two different kind of guitars but still
the neck PU is lets say acceptable, the bridge PU naaah.. does not do the job for me
but nevertheless, I love my coronado
and would never get rid of it

Seems likely. Mine is whisper quiet. Also a 66.
now i'm wondering if a previous owner has had mine rewound or something. it's the only coronado i've ever played so i've nothing to compare it to.
in any case you are lucky since they do the job

it half goes here and half in the shortscale section.. but i'll just post it here
CP HH Jaguar (that i've swapped the neck pickup for a cp jag single coil...)
still wired with a kill switch.. neck roller knob does nothing
bridge roller knob is still essentially the humbucker -->single coil blend
Lower control switches
neck - neck pup on/off
mid - bridge pup on/off
bridge - phase reverse switch for neck pickup
BT Jazzmaster
Neck pickup is CP jazzmaster pickup
Bridge pickup is GFS "Vintage Split Humbucker- Classic Fender Style" sounds like a PAF crossed with a WRHB but i'm happy with it (certainly not a WRHB sound that some would expect)
Looking good! Are those the CP Jag/Jazz pickups I gave you? Glad to see they're getting some use and hopefully they sound good.

82 Ibanez Destroyer II with coil tap on the bridge. Plays great, though I've never really spent much time on anything else except an old Matsumoku Washburn. A much younger me brutalised its surface quite badly with all kinds of attempts to make it 'cool', I actually think in the end, in these ironic times, I succeeded. Now I want an SG junior or maybe something with single coils, I don't think it's good to just play one guitar, I get deaf to the sounds I'm making and stuck in ruts.

I didn't realize you had a Vista Jagmaster and a Jaguar. That Jazblaster looks really tasty. Would look cool next to my Jag-blaster.

yes sir. got the jagmaster and wanted to know just how great that neck would be paired with single coils.
i'll never sell the jagmaster, but have been tempted recently to offload the jaguar to put toward either a martin acoustic (00-15) or the new AC30VR. i've decided i'll just hold off until i sell my amp, and save up some dough, and paint the jaguar pink.

Sell me the neck pickup, Josh. You can have it back later if you want.
Also, that's hawwwt. I'm starting to really love the butterscotch blondish blackguard look.

I'm effectively down to one electric and one acoustic, pretty much right where I want to be. Still have the 1969 Fender Maverick(also have a second Maverick body that's been refinned in IBM) and traded my Martin DX-1 and a little cash to my friend for a Mahogany Martin D-15(<3 it). Sorry for the shit cell phone pic. There are good pics of the Maverick kicking about here and there will be proper ones of the D-15 at some point.
The gold sticker behind the bridge is a Hallmark sticker that's been on the guitar since right after my friend bought it a couple of years ago. It hasn't offended me yet, so I haven't removed it.
