The '51 is going back on the table. Getting a tele humucker bridge, string through body and a GFS loudmouth (my new favoritest pickup).

It's one of my most consistent players, I'm almost positive I'm going to ruin it.

Looking forward to this. I think the string through body idea is a good one.

I love that '51. Whatewver you do to it can always be switched back (even if you cut the pickguard for the bridge it's only a new pickguard away).

Also - funniest Jimmy post evar.

Eastwood hi-flyer

here's where I am with this project:

bought a second scratch plate and the tele bridge plate so I can do that much without taking the guitar out of commision. I have the pickup too but I'm going to use that for my friends lp jr. Build. So I have to reorder it.

Haven't gotten any further since I've got 4 paintings I've got to get knocked out and two other projects I'm supplying for. Plus batman ruined my weekend...

Updates when they happen.

Quick update on this. I cut the new pickguard last night and decided I hated the look of teh 51 with a tele bridge plate on it. Believe it or not, I just felt like it looked too busy. I like it more as a stream lined simple guitar.

Putting it back to how it was today. So I'll probably be putting a tele humbucker bridge plate and matching hacked up 51' deluxe pick guard in the classifieds today. It'll still take a bit of work to get it perfect, but most of the work is done.

GTFO.

I hate it. Back to how it was, tried it with a black bucker too and it looked just as bad. Neat idea, but it looked better in my head.
