Cheers, the warmoth route is probably the way i'll go, but i'll keep my eye on ebay for a couple of week before putting in an order. Always a bit pricey shipping across the water!

I fancy a duo-sonic, advice needed

Hi all I quite fancy putting together a duo-sonic/music master type guitar. I have done some basic guitar building in the past (built a tele) but don't have a lot of free tim these days, so will probably do it in parts. It will probably be a single bridge pick-up, 24" scale neck, possibly finis...

That is pretty much my ideal guitar, i love single pickup guitars, i'm a simple soul and the fewer buttons to confuse me the better! :D

I have to agree with you, it's a very strange looking guitar, not really my cup of tea.

Just find the right neck and the blues tone will follow 8) I think any guitar can be used to give a good blues style, some guitars have become synonymous with the blues but that is because each blues guitarist was comfortable with that particular guitar. Just my two pennies worth, but i could be wro...

Short scale convert

Well the Jaguar turned up yesterday, really nice low action. I was suprised how easy the short scale was to play on, I always found the Gibson scale a bit difficult to get used to, so thought this might have been the same, but it was an easy transition from my strat. It is a 97 CIJ in sunburst, and ...

No worries. Have had a few Gibsons in the past but never really got on with them., always liked that sparkly twang of a Fender. I agree with the try before you buy sentiment though.

Cheers for the replies, think you've made made up my mind to go for the Jaguar. Think i prefer the looks of the jag with the trem system rather than the TOM, just need to be patient now (not one of my virtues) and wait for that bargain :D .

GASing for a short scale

Hi All new to the forum, mainly play a fender strat but have had a recent urge towards the short scale guitars. After a bit of advice, I love the look of the Fender Jag and have been keeping my eye on ebay for that bargain, but am not a fan of using a trem, are they easy enough to block? Also seen a...
