The only mini HBs and Tri-sonics I have are already in guitars. But I suppose I could cut a couple more blanks without the pickup holes and you could finish those? I have 1/8" and 1/16" basswood veneered plywood and 1/8" walnut veneered panel. The clear one I'm experimenting with is ...

Nope. The lines and pickup mounting holes you see are for the pickups from a 1960's Conrad branded Teisco. They're P90 like, but slightly smaller. Somewhere between P90 and Burns pickups, closer to P90 sized but smaller in both directions, pictured here. Well, while you're at it, how about making o...

A couple other Liquids are getting different pickups and Jaguar control plates. Here is an MDF template and clear plastic template I just cut together for that purpose.

Is that pickguard being cut for three mini-humbuckers?

How much do you figure the completed body will weigh?

...I also like the pickups a lot, but will change the pots. It doesn't seem like these are the same P90s as used on the 3 pickup Liquids.

I'd be surprised if they were, the SJMs could be almost a decade older than the ones in the latest batch of three pickup lefty Liquids.

Do you have any idea yet on how you're going to address the chipping around the neck pocket?

Doesn't look like it sorry
I didn't post a link, unsure if that was allowed

Thanks, and no restrictions posting links that I'm aware of unless of course, it's a @LightWingStudios competitor...

The auction just started but something to keep an eye on: Worst case scenario is a bad pickup, but the set would most likely be replaced anyway. Best case scenario, a bad switch or soldering joint, but maybe the contact plate just needs to be bent a little. https://www.ebay.com/itm/305281188907?mkev...

good news is it worked as advertised. no tactile inlay edge anymore and just a little bit of cleanup of glue later and you'd never know. How do you plan to clean up the super glue? l always end up with smudges of it around whatever I was trying to repair, and a couple fingers glued together...

Well, I've got nine who live entirely inside, and they like all different flavor Temptations. Some like chicken, others like tuna, or dairy. Nobody seems to like shrimp flavor or bbq, so I don't get that anymore. I've tried to get them the Walmart knock of version of Temptations, ya know, to save s...

..Why is there an extra zero missing from the price?

A few lines from Webb Wilder and the Beatnecks' "One Taste of the Bait": "If she don't drive you crazy, I guarantee you'll be close enough to walk" "One taste of the bait is worth the pain of the hook, It's easy to fall you don't need a push" https://www.youtube.com/wat...

In fairness, Dolly has spent her entire career entering a room before she arrived.

Do you plan on keeping the stock pickups? As soon as I get a little room to breathe project-wise, for my SJM I'm going to have @Buddha Pickups wind a set of Jazzmaster pickups with a P90 form factor...

I wonder if it's as good as Pat Boone's rock album was:

...If I keep the push pulls, I might use them to change tone cap values or maybe do something crazy like turn on and off an onboard buffer. What kind of mod is that? Don't be a luddy duddy! Don't be a moon calf! Don't be a jabbernowl! You're not those, are you?" Make it a manly project and ins...

...Also, I thought the Rondo text about coil splitting was a copy paste error from the humbucker version, but pulling the tone pots does something that increases pickup output, which seems opposite of a coil split or tap. I'll have to open it up and check the wiring to see what exactly that is doin...

Not a bad price if you give any value to a Jazzmaster tailpiece and/or Liquid's history. It has a Make an Offer option so you may be able to get a better price. I've got a 2TS one already otherwise I'd be interested: https://reverb.com/item/70669547-sx-liquid-p90-left-handed-guitar-vintage-white?utm...

That is pretty surprising for Rickenbacker, especially knowing the Chickenbacker gets it right (or left if I may). I really don't like the fact that there's a Rickenbacker R logo on a guitar that isn't one (the TRC logo says "Monogram"). The few times I've gone to Ali Express for a model ...
