how sweet would this guitar look with a jaguar trem assembly

[Wizard]

thats a hot guitar. i'm thinking of taking the endeavor.

I'm not a fan of ye olde upside down headstock, but three p-90s=

[Achtane]

I love the tiny pickguard!

[dubkitty]

yes.

parenthetically, why does every guitar maker throw a bog-standard Tunomatic and chromed-bar stop tailpiece on their electric guitars? yeah, i know they're easily available, but i see so many designs that are well-thought-out and creative in every other way, but when it comes to the bridge/tail there's that damned stopbar again. they could at least have something fabricated that makes better design sense with the overall look of the guitar. sorry...i work in layout and design, and this kind of thing drives me batshit.

you may already know about this, but there's a rather clever doo-dad available now called the VibraMate, which is a flat metal plate which screws onto the bottom of a Bigsby B5 vibrato and allows you to mount the Bigsby to a stop-tail guitar via the tailpiece studs with no drilling. if you like Bigsbys, this is another alternative.

sorry, that guitar looks like a toronado and a terribly made ric knock off had a baby and had it painted by blind, paraplegic kids in a south african paint factory

3 p90s though... <3

second, though word to the wise, apparently they're going through some sort of copyright law, and are hard to find outside of eBay, where the prices are all jacked up.

though its worth it for the hugely massive bridge increasing sustain and tone, a-la the Traben philosophy which so far, i ascribe to.

On the plus side:
* Block inlays
* P90s
* Cool body shape that would jive with the Jag vibrato

On the minus side:
* Tobacco burst
* Too many pickups
* Reverse headstock

If the black one was made with 2x P90s, I would overlook the reverse headstock, slap a Jag vibrato on there and rock the everlovin' spoonful out of it! As it stands, the good outweighs the bad and dropping some Jag biznass on it would certainly sway things toward playable.

EVERYTHING would be better with jag tremz.

This one solves all your minuses, but you also lose the block inlays...

Yeah I checked out the JetStream too... It is the Flatroc that everyone seems to get boners for but with P90s. Not bad, but I like the set-necked-ness of the War Hawk in the OP. Set necks plus P90s =

As far as reverend goes, the Club King 290 and the Rocco are what i have played, but the P-90's in the club king sound about 250x better than the humbuckers in the rocco, even though the rocco looks infinitely cooler. I like the tobacco burst, and 3 P-90's = moar toanz so i don't see what the trouble is.

and reverse headstocks look sweet when they're not on jacksons.

like on a firebird.

I can't do a bigsby sadly. I'm a jag trem sorta guy.

i wouldn't be caught dead playing that. black on black is lame as fuck dude. theres a reason gibson called their Black on Black series gothic.

[htsamurai]

wiz I love you bro, you've taught me BB King is a goth
