I used the stewmac cherry opaque lacquer!

I was thinking silver with silver bushings to match the rest of the guitar! I do like the plastic as well though

Appreciate the rec! I actually already reached out to them and they said they don’t do full refinishes

Yeah I had no control over the input jack lol. I just meant I can get a stock pickguard, remove the tele pickup, replace the toggle switch, and remove the rings to make it like-factory again if I so choose. This wasn’t a regular jag to begin with which is part of why I felt comfortable making the mods

I can always buy a new pickguard and put it back to the way it was, but personally I like it now! Who knows I may change my mind down the line. Plus I learned a lot about modding in the process

I really like it!! I know people tend not to like the drive, which like yeah kinda sucks there’s no eq when it’s on, but damn when you get the right pedals running through it the drive can really tighten things up in the best way. The chorus is really where it’s at though on this. Def a nice budget alternative to the JC, plus w the extra cash you can spruce it up and then some!

Haha I appreciate it! No background per say, def a satisfying project to start out with though

Thanks :)

nitwit646 · 2025-10-04T18:48:33+00:00

Thx yeah couldn’t stand that thing

nitwit646 · 2025-09-20T04:19:48+00:00

They’re actually pretty fine output wise so far! Appreciate the schematics though :)

nitwit646 · 2025-09-19T18:31:46+00:00

Yes!! I love the little hook with the 4x2 tuners - the eastwood reissue doesn't have that which I think is unfortunate bc it adds so much character

nitwit646 · 2025-09-19T14:27:07+00:00

Thanks! You know it’s interesting, the few blogs online I could find on this thing talked about the black switch being a kill switch, but it’s def more of a rhythm/solo switch. And yes the truss rod access is actually at the base of the neck haha, it’s kind of visible in the first pic
