    Hi !
    I heard in the video that you changed some parts and I would like to know if you have sites or models to help me find them too?
    Thank you

    Hi Volgar,
    I built this guitar using the JMA kit, before the JZ kits were available ...
    I was aiming to build a replica Jazzmaster, so the 2 main things I needed were the tremelo and the scratchplate/pickup combination.
    I was lucky to find someone selling an original Fndr loaded scratchplate on eBay pretty cheap that he'd bought for a project, but never used, which really made my project possible.
    I found the tremolo and buzz stopper on eBay too ...
    The only other parts I added were strap locks and Grover locking tuners from the Pitbull site.
    If I was to do this again I'd start with the JZ kit ... it would have been a lot easier! I had to do a lot of work on the body to make everything fit ...
    :-)
    1st Build - JB-5RF (Runner Up GOTM November 16)
    2nd Build - PBA-5 (PBG custom)
    3rd Build - JMA-1 (JazzMaster)
    4th Build - LP-1S
    ... n+1 Build - currently plotting
