    Waz I guess if you were keen on the JB-5 without a pickguard the factory should be able to do a special order.
    Or start a poll/thread and ask if you can get 4 other people keen for this mod and with 5 orders I think Ads should be able to order them that way

    Good idea Woks however I am just about done with building for a while and sharing a bit of feedback from building both F styles recently where I would have loved to have gone naked on each of them except the front PUP swimming pool routs spoiled the look. Just a heads up for any potential builders of this shape.

    no worries Waz, good to give other forumites feedback and possible options.
    DB has a fretless rosewood neck JB-5 to give feedback to Ads so will be interested what the big guy says !
    I got a feeling it will be more than a review, don't think Ads will get the kit back bwhahahaha
