Looks sensational Lawry, well done, you can see your finish is improving with each build and love the mods. Is that a custom bridge ? I haven't built one of these models but will have to add it to my want list !
Colour matches the pickguard so well and love the neck/headstock colour blend. Keep up the good work and good luck with the gigs tonight and Saturday night. Look forward to a sound demo video once its all set up
The bridge came with the kit but it's a bit 'basic'. I think I may replace it with something more substantial in the future. One thing that surprised me about this axe was how heavy it is. It's only basswood but it has some weight to it. All the better for sustain, I hope. I guess it does have a rather large body compared to my other guitars so maybe I'm just being a sook.
no worries Lawry, I've never felt the weight of a JM guitar so can't comment. Pick up an old Les Paul guitar Lawry and that redefines heavy !
The JM is probably heavier than guitars you have built and played in the past but agree a heavy guitar should give a better sustain
Drool. God damn Lawry that looks amazing. You've done a great job and colour choice is perfect! So often on this forum I find myself looking at other people's guitars and basically wanting to build the exact same guitar for my own collection. Your's has definitely made the short list - I want one bad!
Cheers,
Gav.
Looks great Lawry, very nice job. Can't wait for your next demo video.
Just a saw your GOTM post Lawry. You've hit it out of the park. Absolutely wonderful job. One of the best looking guitars I've ever seen.
Congrats.
Cheers,
Gav.
Top effort Lawry, that's a great looking axe
Thanks guys. Your comments are quite humbling considering the brilliant works of art I see posted in these forums. I can certainly see how it can become an addiction.
Really excellent job Lawry, well done...and such a lovely tribute.
Hope you also do a video of this one. I'm thinking that the Jazzmaster might be my next build, so I'm dead keen to hear the different combinations from those 3 pups.
Cheers
Andy
Damn! Lawry that is nice built.
