so.......
i obught a jagmaster bout 9 months ago, used the parts i wanted from it and now i have a body and a sanded back neck sitting around.
i made a white guard and put 3 later 70's maderia single coils in it ala strat style but i have decided thats boring as hell.
two jm's is too pricey.
two singles is too little.
and 2 p-90;s reminds me of the cheaper alden jazzy copies,
SO! what the hell sort pup config should i put in the bitch, and what color guard?
keep in mind that its suburst.
and somewhere i have a gold guard for it.

thats not a bad idea actually.
a single p-rails in the bridge would look kinda interesting.
how much do those thing run for and who makes em?
i have only ever seen pictures of them before.

Seymour Duncan makes they so they are a bit expensive I guess. But you are getting a lot of sounds from them.
