yeah, it was either pedals or heroin that got his money.

shitty comment, but probably true. I don't recall seeing him play any other guitars in any vidz.

I'm making this a one pup guitar, so I won't need pickup switching. I need to move the input to the bottom so it's out of the way still, so I'm still moving the plate.

Bridge pup only.

Pretty much the only pup I ever use. Sometimes I use the neck pup for tuning purposes, but really I just always use the bridge all the time.

My Peavey project guitar will be a single bridge pup guitar too when it's done, and my Bronco project which I have the body on order will also be a bridge humbuck guitar.

And I'm gonna route the bridge of my Jag for a humbuck too. This is gonna be my new standard aside from my Hagstrom, but even there I replaced the bridge pup with a noiseless single coil.

HATE HUM.

WORD.

This one feels somewhat lighter than my Jag, though, like a Mustang or something. Really really impressed with this guitar, it might just be my favorite guitar ever now.

How is the weight with your Jaguar btw? Mines really heavy for some reason, Like les paul heavy. 11ibs or something.

Also congrats on the super sonic!

It's heavier than a Strat or my Hagstrom, but lighter than most Les Pauls I've dicked around with. I never weighed it really. Feels more like 8-9 pounds, I wouldn't say 11.

It is definitely heavier than my Sonic, though.
