Deeaa: I just printed out a full scale pattern for a Jagmaster body and neck on our plotter here at work. Hosted here: http://www.lucky-cricket.com/files/jagster-plan.pdf . Should be getting new tires for my band saw any day now. I might cheat, and just make a body, since I have a spare mahogany Samick neck sitting at home at the moment. I feel like I can tackle building a guitar body right now. But making a neck, I think is a bit out of my league until I get a bit more practice in the wood shop. I bought all that wood working stuff when we moved into our house. I was going to make cabinet for our kitchen. Well I made one cabinet, and we decided to buy unfinished cabs, heh. Anyways, I have a lot of tools and not a lot of experience wood working. Hoping to double the length of my garage in the spring to give me more room.
Duffy: I don't have any sons (2 daughters), and they aren't old enough to jam out (yet!). I'm not enamored with the pickguard myself, but, it's a strange uncommon shape, so my only option was to get a custom one made, or keep the original. The p90s rock. With one caveat: there's more hum at higher volume or gain than my Tele. Also, I've only really played these at bedroom levels through my Peavey Bandit. I use pedals for dirt, and these get pretty dirty. I'd like to jam out with them at rehearsal volume to see how they sound clean and with some gain. Again, all these descriptions are lame, I really need to sit down and record a few minutes to demo it. I think the demo would be interesting because the 3 pedals on my board (other than a tuner) are a Allum Blues Stack modded BD-2, A stock BD-2, and a BYOC British Blues overdrive. So similar pedals, but different, heh.
I really like the nice olympic White that you did it really looks gorgous on this guitar
