Jazzmaster update and Jag switcheroo
I put the dots and binding neck on the Jazzmaster, I'm very happy with it. Still undecided on whether to get a gold bridge foe it of just take the gold off te Trem...
I loved the '65 A width Jaguar neck I picked up so I put it on the BMM body. The guitar is now totally perfect, sounds amazing and plays like a dream.
This left me with the B+B neck from the BMM Jaguar. Since I used the 65 Mustang neck (that was on my Duo) on the 65 Mustang body I got from Dave I had left my 65 Duosonic sitting without a neck so I popped the Jag one on there. I've been playing this loads. It's a beast!!

Jesus, blue Jazzy is sexy. I even love the fucked-up gold tailpiece on it, matches the earwaxy headstock. I wouldn't get a gold bridge to match, nor try and remove the rest of the gold from the trem. Mismatch replacement bits on an old workhorse guitar are cool. Get a single, tarnished gold tuner for your D string, problem solved.

your threads of late have been pissing me right off, thommy boy.
that jazzmaster is so beautiful. personally, i'd put a vintage trem on it, because the gold screams SHIT. don't take that the wrong way, it looks fine & functional (as frogs hair, innit).
i wish i did whatever you do for a living.

cogito ergo sum...thing or other...
This too. Don't usually like gold, but that's great.Mages wrote:this ^stewart wrote:this ^paul_ wrote:Jesus, blue Jazzy is sexy.

Thank ya. It looks very close to the paint I bought for my Musicmaster, Deep Forest Green, which is also metallic. I still haven't concluded whether to use it or not, I kinda want something non-metalic and more yellowy than blacky.Thomas wrote:Its Clover green. i think is a Honda colour. it's a touch more metallic than it looks in the photo.Pens wrote:What color is that green exactly?

Cheers all!
Pens: It's a great colour, not too metallic. Sounds exactly like what you're looking for.It's Hycote Clover Green (pearl) and it is indeed a honda colour. It's way darker and less bluish than the colour of the cap would have you believe.

My local auto shop ought to have it, since it's a Honda color I'll look in that section. Cheers!Thomas wrote:Cheers all!

Hmm. Maybe I ought to do a test spray of the color I have now then?Thomas wrote:Sorry I edited my above post a bit. It's way darker, less metallic and less of a bluish tint than the cap would have you believe.
Based on image searches, this appears to be the color I bought:
So it's a tad too blue for me.
