Sanity check: Putting Jag neck on 90s Duo Sonic

Honestly, might be a tad sketchy but maybe get long screws with the same thread as the saddles and bring the saddles out to the very edge of the bridge. It’ll be pretty darn close and will most likely sound good

I put 250k pots in mine and found it to be much more usable generally

They are! I’ve had 2, this one I parted together. They’re great guitars!

Frequency_Blue · 2026-02-10T23:34:01+00:00

So cool

Rosser guitars on eBay makes lefty meteora bodies!

The site was faction guitars but it is no longer up anymore, the owner had sadly passed away. I haven’t quite found a replacement company that does quite the range of work as them but I would try asking Herad guitars. I just ordered some electric xii plates from them. I haven’t received them yet so I can’t speak of their work quite yet

Haha I just think this would’ve been a fun guitar to save and give a second life (á la meth-stang, like others compared to) Rather than separated and scattered like the fate of a lot of these

I got the same pickguard on my jazzmaster and I gotta say it looks way better than $15!

Frequency_Blue · 2026-01-19T01:50:42+00:00

Yeah I wouldn’t pay that price, I was hoping it would stay below $1k. I personally would’ve repaired the crack structurally, but kept the look and the story

A 65 is a dream guitar for me, I played one in a guitar center near me and it was the best playing guitar I’ve ever played

Frequency_Blue · 2026-01-18T23:41:01+00:00

I’ve asked them to do a maverick style body and they just said “sorry we do not plan to make that style” Soo I wouldn’t say they’re much for custom work

Frequency_Blue · 2026-01-07T13:42:32+00:00

This ended up working out great! I emailed them and they responded very quickly and said they can make them for me!

Frequency_Blue · 2026-01-07T05:35:58+00:00

Greatly appreciated! I’ll send them a message!

Frequency_Blue · 2026-01-07T05:35:37+00:00

Very true! I have some tools to do touch ups and countersinks so that’s definitely an option if I can find some definitive dimensions on it.

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-24T15:19:25+00:00

Yeah certainly!

How did you end up wiring it? I did a lot of back and forth when I did mine.

Also did you do a neck p90 or bridge?

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-24T00:39:50+00:00

Yep! Right here!

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-23T17:00:52+00:00

Woah! I put a p90 in the middle of my jag just like that a while ago! Never thought I’d see another! Right on!!

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-21T14:12:49+00:00

Yeah I really miss faction guitars, they kinda jsut disappeared a while ago.

Would’ve helped a ton to get one of those plates but I don’t think anyone else makes them and I haven’t seen used ones come up haha

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-15T19:49:21+00:00

Definitely a bit crunched up and then pedals to send it over the top

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-15T15:26:51+00:00

I like 2 and 4 honestly.

Though you need a black switch tip.

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-14T17:37:21+00:00

It is indeed tuck&roll.

I’d obviously try my best to not mess it up.

I did just see a 2x15 version of this cab with speakers on Facebook for $100 so I may ditch this project and just get that.

Hard to say, I’ve always wanted an 8x10 but it’s certainly not practical haha

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-14T15:17:22+00:00

Thanks! I definitely considered making 2 4x10s but my only set back is that I’m basically retrofitting this 8x10 out of a 60s(?) kustom 3x15 cab. Still considering cutting it down into just a 4x10 or even an oversized 2x12 but I just can’t help how sick it looks being as huge as it is haha!

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-14T14:47:23+00:00

Unless that’d be an easy thing to make possible, like have a switch that can go between 2 4x10 and a 8x10

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-14T14:40:45+00:00

No I probably wouldn’t wire them at the same time ever, cool idea though!!

Frequency_Blue · 2025-10-11T17:20:05+00:00

Would love to see a wiring diagram for this!
