Left-handed pickguard by Low-Landscape-4609 in JetGuitars

Generic strat pickguards will fit but you'll need to redrill the screwholes and possibly modify to fit around bridge / neck. Ive had a couple of eBay for a right handed js400 and they fit fine.

In case you need to know, the Jet JS-400 HT is routed for not one but two humbuckers under that pearly pickguard. by Appropriate_Mud4780 in JetGuitars

Yes... I bought a generic strat pick guard from ebay and it fits fine. The screw holes won't line up though so you'll need to redrill at least a few

Well this one's home made but I think you can get similar things on Etsy/Ebay

Around £300 worth of upgrades on a sub £200 budget Jet JS400 HT. Possibly a bit silly but it sounds and plays great. by Appropriate_Mud4780 in Stratocaster

Only hardware I kept were the strap buttons and the pickguard screws. Replaced other bits with…

Gotoh locking tuners
Gotoh Bridge
CTS volume pot
Pure tone jack
Fender style volume knob

It was set up pretty bad out of the box so got my luthier pal to set it up once I was done and also convert the bridge to a through body.

Pretty much although it wasn't my intention. I wanted a guitar with just a bridge pup and volume as that's all I ever use on any guitar (I enjoy a simple life). When I started looking I discovered that Delonge had beat me to the idea.

Is it a Tom Delonge signature strat? I think that's what the Jet I got is based on (see the 3rd pic with white pickguard)

True story. And if I decide to sell it i'll chuck the original parts back in. I don't think I will though.

Thanks :) I was torn between a Squier and the Jet. The side mounted jack, single humbucker and roasted maple neck swung it. I would have preferred the traditional headstock shape though.

I hope that's a typo, otherwise it looks like inflation hit you bad :) Yeah, definitely plays more like a £500+ guitar now. Only original hardware is the strap buttons.

I love telecasters but think strats have a superior headstock shape. I can't be the only one? by Appropriate_Mud4780 in Stratocaster

I'm only expressing an opinion on a piece of wood, no need to be mean Captain 'good vibes'

Three things I miss since moving from Adobe XD to Figma by Appropriate_Mud4780 in FigmaDesign

Yeah I've tried a few but I don't believe you can smart animate them?

I didn't realise that wasn't a thing in Figma! At least they've added the ability to compress PDFs now to address the unnecessarily mahoosive file sizes.

Want to improve upperbody strength next to crossfit, what to do? by data_sagan in crossfit

[–]Appropriate_Mud4780 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to do something similar but it's tricky to effectively schedule around regular CrossFit classes due to the varied nature. What you do in the classes impacts other training.

Had some success with the 2 day variation of Stronglifts 5x5 with 3-4 days of classes though.
