First Jazzmaster Build

Post by faustodabanda » Thu Sep 24, 2020 1:21 pm

First of all, sorry for my bad english as it's not my primary language and I don't have been training a lot.
Just finished my so desired Jazzmaster build.
I had a mighty mite neck maple neck and a few parts available, so I decided to order to a local luthier a mahogany jazzmaster body to go with it.
I'm very happy with the final results, and I'm still waiting to my mustang bridge to arrive, but so far so good.
Here's a album documenting the build.

Some really nice guitars showing up on here tonight! That color scheme is like a JM version of Gilmour's black Strat. I LOVE it!!!!

Badass, very 70's down to the bullet truss rod adjustment.

Nice. That's how to do a black body with a maple fretboard right.
This is an excellent rectangle
