Just ordered me a set of Mojotone Broadcaster Quiet Coil Tele Pickups. Had great reviews. Has anyone got these?
At least I’ll have time to build my Tele kit before they arrive

I put the City Limits into my MIJ Strat. I love them and as I play rock, blues and pop styles I think you'll like them. The middle pick up is my fav and I rarely stray from it.
Good luck, Go the...
Just weighed her and she came in at 4.6kg.

Thanks everyone. A sexy guitar needs a sexy case. I’m super happy with both. I followed instructions from Instructables. With a few modifications. What to do next?

Case coming along good. Thinking of staining and clear coat danish oil on outside to match guitar. Black velvet on...
Some final adjustments and some good strings and I'm so happy with the result of my build. It plays like an SG, quite thick neck, chunky. The 2 necks put the weight balance a bit off and I find I'm...
Did some filing to round the corners to get that perfect fit.

I’m taking the 12 string neck off and trying to get it to sit better. The rounded corners need re shaping to allow the end to sit flush. And was angling slightly forward.

Headstock Decal, strap locks, done. Still got to do some final set up adjustments and then the challenge of finding a case. lol. I’m thinking I might just make one. ??

All wired up and now the necks are on. Got some set up tweaks to do but very happy so far.

Okay, got the pickups and switches all soldered in and working. Yes I now realise this was very ambitious for a first/second build, but wow, what a feeling when you plug in to test the pickups and...
Hey, quick question about the wiring. Does the necks have their own volume and tone but not separate neck/bridge pickup volume?
Rockin' along with the AGD-612 build folk. The necks are just about finished, I cut a wave for the headstock end. Stained "walnut" and Danish oil for gloss. Conditioned fretboard and glued in the...
Twin neck is coming along. Stained and Danish Oil done. Necks the same.

Thanks for that. I’ll try uploading some photos soon.
Hi all,
For my second project I'm taking on a twin neck. It's a fair bit harder than the Tele build but I've always wanted one.
I've sanded and stained the body with a Walnut stain, also cut a wave...
Thanks Fretworn.
Finished sanding the neck and put the first coat of Dingotone Neck Finish.
Will put another on tomorrow night.
My daughter is busy hand painting the body.
Hi everyone.
I'm gonna document each step of my build.
I ordered on Monday and got it Tuesday. In the middle of CORVID 19 as well. Amazing.
I would love constructive advice and hope to learn as...
