murkat Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 Well, Shawn's burst, but we know of this.... A messed up 64 Jag! the board is bad... in for a re fret and cpa re due, finish work A real gibson 74 V in for a refin and mods per owners request of. An already painted, coated, scuff sanded wip
murkat Posted December 9, 2012 Author Posted December 9, 2012 Then we have Two guitars that will change into what the owners want.... These are going to be very fun esp this one......
murkat Posted December 9, 2012 Author Posted December 9, 2012 wow what happened to the fret-board? the Jaguar? years of abuse and wannabee afflictions. showed that way, and well informed about it prior. Just wait....
Hackubus Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I got to spend some time with a '64 Jag this summer. Those are fun little guitars. What's the plan for the Explorer, if you don't mind me asking?
kizanski Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Wonder if it'll be edgy? If, by "edgy" you mean "pointy", then yes. However, it'll be more like a dull-around-the-edges-after-a-dozen-or-so-double-margaritas.

Steve Haynie Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 Pickup rings on a Strat pickguard? What kind of Frankenstein have you created? What did you have to do to get clearance?
kizanski Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 Pickup rings on a Strat pickguard? What kind of Frankenstein have you created? What did you have to do to get clearance? Look at the height of the bridge...
murkat Posted December 24, 2012 Author Posted December 24, 2012 Pickup rings on a Strat pickguard? What kind of Frankenstein have you created? What did you have to do to get clearance? Look at the height of the bridge... John Mann (PRS) proprietary bridge height adjustment screws
RobB Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Look at the height of the bridge... John Mann (PRS) proprietary bridge height adjustment screws Very clever, Jaye. That makes perfect sense to use the PRS screws. I had no idea those notched screws would work with a standard, vintage bridge. Never woulda thought of that...
murkat Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 yeah... I can be clever at times The guitar is a monster tone machine with a combo of vintage and modern appointments. The Gregwinds are an excellent canidate for a super switch, great split combinations. can go from clean to mean with a flick of a switch....
coolfeel Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Man I would play the everloving shit out of the Strat...
MCChris Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Man I would play the everloving shit out of the Strat... As would I! That is totally bad-ass!! An also fucking outstanding!
a.bandini Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Hey Jay, As an owner of a '65 Jag, I'd love to see some updated photos of that Jaguar with the needs-love fingerboard. Whadyasay? Bill
marcnorth Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Whats that hanging between the Jackson & the Gibson? Looks like a Ric of some kind.
Feynman Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Man I would play the everloving shit out of the Strat... As would I! That is totally bad-ass!! An also fucking outstanding! Holy shit that is awesome. LOTT seems to have excellent taste in guitars, and clearly Murkat can deliver the vision and then some. Man, that is maybe the coolest guitar I've seen here in a long time.

Bill poor jag was a mess, being a veneer rosewood fretboard and at 7.25 radius did not help either... Whats that hanging between the Jackson & the Gibson? Looks like a Ric of some kind. An old Ricky that needs some love re fret, still trying to decide on a pickguard / bridge / pickup situation for it.... Maybe ala "RickyZander"?

TY! I was given ideas, parameters, I threw back some of Ideas, together, "WE" came up with a winner Yes, you can relic poly..... carefully.
a.bandini Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Well Jay, I can't touch or hear it, so can't honestly say it sounds and feels terrific, but it sure looks fantastic, and I'd bet a lot that it sounds better than it looks. That's an entirely new fingerboard? Wow. I'm challenged building a five-step back door stairway out of pressure-treated wood. For now, I can only offer my appreciation for your artistry, and thank you for the photos. Lovely work!
murkat Posted December 31, 2012 Author Posted December 31, 2012 TY, " That's an entirely new fingerboard? Wow. " Nope, the original finger board

" Nope, the original finger board Look very closely and you can see the patch rosewood at the end of the fretboard. I thought it was an all new fretboard, too.
