DMS-1 The King's 4th Pitbull build

[king casey]

Update: Due to a successful Trem-King experiment on another guitar (and a pile of 'Surf' tunes to learn)
I am investing in a Trem-King TK-3 for this guitar.


Should take a few weeks to show up I guess but been there before.

cheers, Mark.

Following the tracking of the Trem-King.
Took 9 days to travel from Georgia to Florida, then to New York and around the globe to Hong Kong...then Sydney.
Since report that it departed Sydney it's hit a road block and been missing in action for 5 days.
I guess the Australia Post budget has gone in Cartier watches.


Meanwhile I addressed some OCD by re-doing the control plate.
Made it a bit more like original Mustang but without wonky hole placement.



cheers, Mark.

Hi Oli. I think they are softening us up in preparation for full privatisation.
Then we'll be used to a poor quality expensive service.

cheers, Mark.

So over half the delivery time was spent in Victoria.
But it's finally arrived.



Time for some fun and games.

cheers, Mark.

May have to get some more Dremel attachments tomorrow.

Hi Oli.
Having already done one, I'm hoping for an easier ride this time.

Not having a router means making the cavity a bit of a saga.





Next comes the spring cavity.

cheers, Mark
