Stan you don't want to upset Ponch or he will be around with a big ticket for you later !
one question Stan I assume this is a left hander, whats the deal does the bridge have a piezo pickup ? Are there any volume or equaliser controls on it ? probably weren't around in 1957 !
yes wokks , it will be a leftie
I have a kent armstrong full size jazz humbucker going into it - yet to cut the big hole... the stiffening rails inside seem to be the exact distance apart to fit one. if not, some fancy modding coming up.
it will be single pup with tone and volume controls - chicken head knobs mounted on the body
sounds good Stan, I got a Kent Armstrong mini humbucker to go in my tele build. Going to have to try a Babicz bridge for that !
that sounds nice, love babicz stuff
These have arrived : (for this resto and for my ES kit yet to be properly started...)

wow they look speccy Stan, where are they from ?
Looks like tinted clear perspex with some sort of dye or colouring ?
they are really nice.
they are molded, the colours are mixed as the plastic is poured into the mold, so every one is different.
they are hand made by a guy called Matt Haramis in the USA. He is on the Electric Guitar Builders Resource page on FB.
Great guy, easy to deal with, good prices, can do any colour and has a range of knob shapes etc.
He did the truss rod covers custom off a pic I sent him. I can PM his details to anyone who wants them. I was his first Aussie customer.
The knobs are to suit standard CTS pots and even have tightening screws. Very pro job.
nice one Stan, little touches like these can really set an axe apart from one with more stock hardware.
