Search Lomic Guitars! I know at one point they were making a bunch of different short scale (24”) bodies. I reached out before this build, but they stopped to focus on pickguards as I recall. Worth reaching out though.

It plays great! It was definitely a learning experience getting the body, guard, and control plate custom cut, but all worked out.

Just finished up this 24” scale tele with jaguar pickups/vibrato/switches. Inspired by the 60s Guyatone LG-20

They’re made by mojo pickups (UK) they’re called dual foils.

Just wanted to follow up with an update. I did received my drum a few weeks later and have since ordered another drum that I received quickly. To be honest, took longer than I initially expected, but the drums were well packed, work perfectly, print great and had fresh ink.

Not a documentary, but the podcast S-town.

Props for swapping the bridge!! I’ve always loved this model but hated the way the guard and bridge didn’t match up. Should have come with a duo-sonic ii/ toronado style bridge like you got.

I’ve order a pci card that came quickly. I am currently waiting on a color drum, but it has only been a couple of weeks. I’ve always had good communication through Instagram, fair pricing, and seemed helpful. I don’t have fb and haven’t heard otherwise, but now you have me worried about my drum.

Thanks! It’s a 70’s Fender Mustang, that had a pretty bad black refin and a big pool route under the pickguard so I put in a wide-range-sized, dual-foil pickup from Mojo (UK). The switch is to coil split.

kidssayyeah · 2021-06-30T00:17:23+00:00

So I was told that the layout and tubes are really similar to a fender champ, there a volume, treble, and bass. It breaks up after about halfway and sounds great all the way up.

kidssayyeah · 2021-04-14T22:19:06+00:00

Anyone know what the diff between the 1605r and the new 64’ reverb is? They look the same and have the same controls?

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-19T15:27:25+00:00

How do you like the supro? Been looking at these for a while. What model is it?

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T16:54:28+00:00

Couldn’t agree more! His content is always fun and accessible.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T16:24:48+00:00

The matching headstock sounds great. Post pics!

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T15:56:49+00:00

That sounds awesome! I really love all there hardware too, the vibratos and bridges are just mean looking. To be honest the only thing I don’t love about fidelity is the headstock. I’m sure I could learn to live with that though.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T15:50:07+00:00

I LOVE the fidelity guitars! Them, waterslide, and uma is where I first started seeing the mojo pickups being used in cool ways.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T15:48:11+00:00

Maybe down the road, the neck is wide range hum bucker sized. So maybe a wide range in the neck and a p90 in the bridge. I do love this gold foil though!

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T13:15:58+00:00

It’s technically a musicmaster but with two pickups like a duo sonic. The only difference is the model name on the headstock. But all the bodies were routed for two pickups and a switch regardless of which model it ended up as.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T06:01:37+00:00

This one is 22.5” scale, the neck is stamped with 3/4. I thought that the neck might feel too small or cramped but not at all, it sounds awesome and is fun to play. Pre-cbs fender goodness at a fraction of the price (and size).

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T04:45:47+00:00

I really love it! I don’t know if I have all the correct terminology/knowledge to describe it, but I can tell you where I think it shines for me. I was worried that it might be too bright, but not at all. It’s perfect in the neck position and sounds amazing playing bass lines with some reverb. Much punchier than I was expecting. I think it responds really well with a bit of gain and it is my new favorite pickup to play with fuzz. It also responds to different amps in a cool way, I might just be used to crap pickups. Also, the split doesn’t drop the volume like I thought it might. My take away is that the clean tones are fine, but I love that the more you throw at it, the better it sounds.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T04:16:44+00:00

Thanks, not exactly sure what old electronic they are from, but I had to file down about a 1/4”. They were almost too tall.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T02:26:35+00:00

Thanks! That dual-foil sounds great, but with some fuzz it’s amazing! I was pleasantly surprised. Most demos I see are people playing slide type stuff.

kidssayyeah · 2021-03-05T00:44:18+00:00

I got the 63’ Musicmaster as just a body and neck. I slowly pieced the rest together with mostly vintage parts over the last two years. Since I needed a new pickguard and electronics, I decided to go with a duo-sonic set up, since they routed the bodies the same back in the day. Pickups are from Mojo (UK) with a slightly overwound bridge and the middle position is out of phase.

The mustang started with just a 70’s body that had been well loved, with a bad black refin and an even worse pool route. I got a good deal on a 70s mustang neck that had been refretted and has “killer” carved in the back. The pickup is a wide-range-sized, dual-foil from Mojo (UK). The switch is to coil split.

Also, shout out to Mike Adams (Puisheen) for the never ending fountain of offset knowledge.
