Newly Modified American Original Jaguar

[GreenKnee]

So this is my American Original Jaguar, newly revamped with a shell pink nitro finish, Mojo Firebird Goldfoil pickups, KC toggle switch, Emerson pots and bumblebee cap.

This thing looks beautiful, sounds mega, and feels oh so sweet to play after a little setup. I'm going to try and get some samples recorded this evening and post them here.

The full transformation can be seen here:

It looked like this before, I'd fitted the Mastery bridge and vibrato:

You had me at shell pink LOVE the changes! Congrats on a real looker of a guitar!!!

[Bradley-Jazz]

That's a lovely guitar - great colour!

I presume you are happy with Ozzy Owl's work - it's good to know of someone who can do this work in Sheffield - dare one ask how much the respray was?

He's obviously a Wednesdayite too!!

[MigJim]

That's absolutely blown me away!

I live in Sheffield and had NO IDEA about this guy, he's deffo gonna get some business from me in the future after seeing these pics.

Anyway, congrats mate, that jag looks absolutely drool worthy

Haha. Same here! Rrrrooooaaaarrr! That‘s beautiful!
And a Mastery with a Mute... Haven‘t seen that combo often...

He does outstanding work, I first had my 1962 Jaguar refretted by him ( http://www.ozzyowl.co.uk/the-workshop/r ... er-jaguar/ )

On the itemised invoice the respray in nitro was £100. This is the first time I've had a guitar resprayed, but I feel that's very reasonable.


I assumed we're all Wednesday, aren't we?

He lives very close to me as well so it was nice and easy dropping it off and collecting the guitar at his house

Thanks for the kind words, I'm really looking forward to trying it out with some proper volume. At the minute I'm confined to the spare bedroom with a Strymon Iridium

Of course WAWAW!!

£100 sounds very reasonable indeed, too. Enjoy!!

Looks super! Please do put up this demo when you get the time. I am interested in how it sounds with these pickups.

Looks great!
I was looking for one of those switch plates but ended up getting a Marr style one. Where did you find it?

Thanks
I got it from Custom World Guitar Parts ( https://www.customworldguitarparts.com/ ... crews.html) but I bought it on eBay from them. Around a tenner +p&p

[GreenKnee]

Got a very quick demo of the pickups recorded

First melody is neck, 2nd both pickups, 3rd is bridge pickup and a little dirt from an Earthquaker Devices Plumes. Reverb comes from an Earthquaker Devices Afterneath V3, and I'm using a Strymon Iridium as an "amp and cab"
