    I can play bass, but i'm not a bassist. If I was, I would want either that one, a FBIV, or Blitzbass as my weapon of choice.

    It turned out great, Kiz. I mean...it's phallic...err...fantastic!

    I like how they addressed the upper fret access on this reboot. The headstock is fine, however I do prefer the banana on this body style.

    Brad and Joe each had one IIRC. I think Brad played his mini Standard in Chiquita video.

    Based on a deep dive I did years ago, I think all of the Kalamazoo-made Generators had that red script logo..

    Those were some of the coolest non traditional designs. Wish they'd caught on and made in larger numbers back then!

    I've always thought the Roxie model looked like a sperm whale. Now, with that aquamarine flake job, it really looks like a sperm whale!

    Four months since the last update. Who is the custodian of Special #5 now?
  14. Biz Prof
    Hey, Gene,: Any idea where the #5 Special is at the moment?
  15. Biz Prof
    Status check on Wyldbil Pirate Special #5. Any updates?
  16. Biz Prof
    Well, I can assure you gents that when Pirate Special #5 makes it down to central NC, it shall be gigged. Photo and/or vid-jah evidence will follow.

    If it doesn't make it to IL, who here is game for a Southeast turn (VA, NC, SC, GA, etc.)?
  18. Biz Prof
    Post holiday bump. Where is the Special now?
  19. Biz Prof

      Hi Skip:

      My PayPal account is:

      The stacked pot is the TBX, at least that's how it was sold to me when I purchased the Lace Sensors. The wiring diagram I put in the box is exactly what I used to install it. This column from Premier Guitar explains how it works:

      http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/The_Fender_TBX_Tone_Control_Part_1

      This site has some good alternatives for mods to the TBX. Worth a read: https://sites.google.com/site/phostenixwiringdiagrams/modified-tbx-tone-control

      And this is a digital copy of the wiring diagram:

      Thanks for all the info Jon.

      I gave the info to my son Aaron to get you the money to your paypal.

      I let you know how it all turns out.

      Later, Skip

    Hi Skip.

    Sorry, still dealing with post hurricane fallout at my workplace. I don't have a standard Strat guard for these, as I hand routed the one I have to fit around a Floyd trem baseplate. I will sell you the blue/silver/red set plus the tone pot for $60 shipped. Don't bother with PayPal if you would rather just send a check upon receiving the goods. I will ship it to you and let you get your hands on them. HFC honor system works fine by me. 

    Regards,

    Jon

      Hey Biz, I'll take you up on it.

      By the way, which color goes where?

      Is it  Blue/neck, Silver/middle, Red/bridge?

      I guess you also use standard volume and tone pots with these pickups?

      Please answer these questions for me.

      I really appreciate you hooking me up. Thanks,

      Send them here:

      You got the configuration exactly right. Standard pots work fine. I will get them in USPS to you tomorrow.  I used them for over a year in my #1 Strat gigging the southeastern college circuit. Noiseless and perfrct for rock. Hope they work for you, too.

      Regards,

      Jon

      Thanks Jon.

      I pretty sure they'll offer me cool and different alternative fat strat tones that I don't

      get from my other strats.

      I'll be waiting for them.

      Thanks,Skip

    Please, someone let me know the next time it makes its way back to the southeastern US. I have a photo op waiting on it.
  23. Biz Prof
    If it ever makes it back to NC and into my hands, I will make a special trip to my alma mater to hang it over this guy's shoulders for a nice photo op:

    Most TV appearances EVER have been that way. Sure was common in the '80s. It was like the original version of "unplugged" long before Mtv made acoustic sets popular. I think even Dokken did this on, of all shows, American Bandstand. Egad!ETA: Yep...Dokken pantomimed on Dick Clark's show. Check out that Kramer neck on George's Bengal.

    Well....I was going to specify emerald green. Perhaps a dip in the ocean might be in order. That guitar is stunning. I'm blue-green with envy.
