    And here's my entry for this month: Fred's JBA4 JPJ

    Body abused with steel wire brush to deepen the grain, then tinted black with Feast & Watson Black Japan Prooftint, with about 10 coats of True Oil, no sanding or buffing.
    Neck natural with 4x coats of True Oil.

    Upgrades:
    * Upgraded tuners
    * Tusq graphtec nut
    * Silver dot markers
    * Babicz full contact bridge
    * Routed to accomodate 3rd pup and switches
    * Custom pick guard to accomodate neck and middle pups
    * Jaguar switch plate and switches to select pups
    * Jack moved to side to allow for 4x knobs on front plate
    * Tonerider Pickups: Jazz Plus for neck and bridge and Precision Plus for middle
    * CTS pots with Orange Drop cap
