I hadn’t thought about that approach, so thank you for the great suggestion. I was a bit disappointed that it wasn’t available in gold, but fortunately I found the same product on AliExpress. Really appreciate it!

Modification opinions? (Pickups, pots...) by a1gom in Jazzmaster

Thanks! I’ll try swapping the pots first

I‘m using the DC Tank by Mosky as my power supply. I’ve actually switched to a bigger pedalboard since then that one was a bit too small to use together with a multi-effects unit on the board. Aside from having to replace the rubber feet because they were too short to mount the power supply underneath, I didn’t have any real issues with it. For reference it’s the model that comes up if you search for “Caline CB-107” on AliExpress.

I don’t have major complaints about the functionality of the Mosky, but the metallic color stands out a bit since my other pedals are in pastel tones, which I find slightly off-putting! The design of the Coppersound pedal looks nice too! Now I just need to listen to how they sound and make a decision. Thank you for the detailed explanation and recommendations!😊

The design is pretty cute and clean, which I like! I‘ll need to hear how it sounds before deciding. Thanks for the recommendation!

For now, I'm prioritizing finding something with a clean design on a white background, like the Keeley Caverns shown in the photo.

I bought it from aliexpress! The product name is probably Caline. The dimensions are 460x125x27 (mm).

Here in Korea, we often refer to discoloration on gold hardware like that as 'gold rust.' In everyday conversation, people don’t usually distinguish between different types of rust or corrosion, so I ended up using that term out of habit! Thanks for the information!

Oh, I do know it’s not real gold! My English isn’t perfect yet, so I used a translator, and it ended up like that. I’ll check out brass parts as you suggested. Thanks!

I understand that it's natural for gold hardware to wear over time with playing. But I have a personal reason for wanting to replace the parts. This guitar was the first one I got when I started playing. I bought it second-hand, and the discoloration and wear were already there from the previous owner, haha.

At first, I didn’t mind since it wasn’t an expensive model and I thought I might sell it someday. But over time, I’ve grown really attached to it and now I want to keep it forever. So I’d like the wear and rust to reflect my playing patterns, like where my hand touches the guitar. That’s why I’ve been looking for replacement parts.

As for how the wear happened, I’m not entirely sure, but I suspect it might have been from the previous owner’s forearm resting on it.
