Re: Squier Bullet Mustang modifications
Great projects.
I'm extremely envious of these competition Bullet bodies, they look amazing but I don't think any made it to Canada. All the online vendors have shipping charges of $140-$320 CAD for these which takes the shine off their value for money just a smidgen.

Re: HansPanzer - Builds, projects and modifications
Bought a secondhand Squier Affinity Jazzmaster and of course, I had to modify it.
I sanded the neck and applied 4 coats of Liberon Finishing oil, levelled the frets and polished them.
Had a set of chinese locking tuners I had to try, they work, but they`re quite stiff. Needs to be changed at some point.
The pickups are coverless buckers in the PAF-landscape, the neck a no name japanese with vintage braided wire and the
bridge is a Oil City. Bought covers from ebay, and cut of some pieces of a striped ebony headstock plate I had lying around.
They came out nice.
I drilled some new holes in the bridge and used Gotoh In Tune Saddles.
The pickguard is slightly modified and I put a Jag control plate on it. The mini switch ha no function, just had to fill the hole
from the previous volume control with something
I bought the knobs from Banzai Music in Germany.
It came out really nice. Plays and sounds great and it looks smashing (in my humble opinion
)
