This was the first kit i got from Pitbull. This is it's 3rd iteration over 2 years.
Finally happy with the result.
The figuring on the ash body was not done justice to until this time around. My first effort was with poor dye, the second was with a torch, it was ok but just didn't hit the right spot for me. I have heavily modified the body from the original. Lots of carving, humbucker rout for the neck and a new lower horn. The control plate has been recessed into the body. The stain is from Crimson and I used Dulux Duramax for top coat. Sanded with 600 grit after 1 can. It is not polished as I wanted the texture of the grain to be a feature.
Pickups are a pair of Seymour Duncan's. Wiring is 3-way with a Single volume control. Mini toggle on neck for South coil/Series/Parallel, Mini toggle on bridge for North coil/Series/Parallel.
3-Saddle Top Load, String-Through bridge with Compensated Brass Saddles and Grover locking tuners.
