Good job
The mini is a nice touch, I thought about that as well.
I think you me and John have the same guitar

I have seen those under the brand name Cozart I think. Didn't Agile use to make a single P90 guitar? I like the PRS version of a LP Jr too. My Juniors (LP & SG) see a lot of play.

That is what it was, I couldn't rememeber I think I got it 8 years ago and it has maybe been sitting torn apart for the last 7...tonebender wrote: ↑Sun Jan 28, 2024 8:13 am I have seen those under the brand name Cozart I think.

It is surprisingly a nice player desite the low cost, there are quite a few issues like gold overspray on the fretboard, finish flaws all over the place in the paint and in the back that popped out when I scuffed up the gloss on the back that I didn'tt correct because I wanted to just se how it plays and it looks good from a distance.
Agile made a similar one, but I think theirs was a stop tail with just a single control Epiphone has one too (Jared James Nichols signature)
10 years, 2 months, and 8 days of blissful ignorance ruined by that snake in the grass Major Tom.

Agile had both a wraparound and a tom/stop.
I'm pretty sure the unfinished kit I got was a Cozart. It's still sitting here painted in Reranch Gold waiting to be assembled.

The Jared James Nichols Epi is a really classy looking guitar but I think it comes with a 50's C shape neck and without playing one in person I would be reluctant to order one. The Gibson Junior has a 50's neck too and I tried those and did not bond. If Gibson would just make a Jeff Cole signature Les Paul Junior in a Goldtop finish, ebony board and 60's neck I would order it as quick as I could point and click. It is exactly why I ended up with a Chibson Les Paul Junior. The neck is perfect and I changed all the other parts to make it on par with the real thing. I may even refinish the thing, still contemplating taking on the chore. Yes, I took a chance on the neck but I only risked $225 and I figured I could get most of it back quickly if it arrived with a ball bat neck.
