    59 Custom Hybrid w/ P90 neck

    Got my 59Custom Hybrid yesterday.. .. I just sanded the pickguard a little , just enough to allow the Humbucker to fit in the P90 hole.. Jaguarillos are routed with swimming pool routes so anything will fit in them.. Didn't take much sanding and while it doesn't look factory with the extra open...

    Squier Mods

    I've used those sanding sponges on my necks. Three of my four necks are Roasted Maple and the other is Rosewood so no finish is on them which makes it easy.. I took a, 330 grit I believe' sponge and ran it up and down the neck edges and it does a great job on the fret ends at the same time. The...

    59 Custom Hybrid w/ P90 neck

    I have a mim Fender Jaguarillo that has Lollar P90's in the neck and bridge.. The neck is awesome but the bridge I just can't live with.. Switching from neck or middle position to bridge and all the bottom end disappears. I have done everything I can to get some low end into the equation but...

    how to install or solder a vintage mini humbucker in a fender telecaster?

    59 neck in bridge.

    I can get (borrow) a 59 neck pickup and have been looking for a bridge p/u for an offset partscaster. Currently have a SD Ant2 Mustang pickup in the neck which I like a lot. Wondering how different would the SH1n be from a SH!b in that bridge position. Maybe even the lower wind of the sh1N...

    SD Ant II FireBirds on 4 way switch

    Anyone ever done it ? Just curious what it would sound like in series wired on a Fender type 4 way switch.. Working on a new build. How to mod the neck pickup wiring to get the other ground wire? I installed the pickups on another guitar earlier but really didn't pay attention to the details...

    How much is considered overwound?

    Just a quick basic question here.. On say a Ant2 Firebird neck p/u that specs say should be wound @ 6.4k , what range would you consider it as being somewhat overwound..? or how high before it make any perceivable difference..

    Fender Jaguarillo pickup recommendations

    Re: Fender Jaguarillo pickup recommendations This is what I did to mine.. Took some minor dremel work and a custom pickguard.. Nothing big though.. Wouldn't trade it now.. (Lollar P90's in there) Never like it with 3 p/u's .. and never cared for the Atomic Humbucker it came with.. But...
