  1. I did tighten up the machine head covers that are famous for exploding or coming apart. I used a small punch and tightened up the cover connectors. I need a couple more adjustments to the bridge but I’m very close to being done.
  2. No, not really. It was my preference this time. I’ve tried them a couple of times. But, I might give up on them. As much as I hate to say this...they are too light😕. I’ll play them for a while and probably switch them out for a slightly higher gauge.
  3. My 72 Ric 4001. Had it since ‘73 or so. Bridge maintenance...mismatched screws. A good waxing is in order. Clean the controls and jacks/switches. Clean the case inside and out. I might try to replace the mute pad that is missing...although I don’t use it. The strings have been on a very long time...so long that I cut them off. RotoSound FunkMasters will be going on.
  4. I should have it by Thursday!
  5. The body is said to ship Soon! Yeah!
  6. This is my babinga neck ready for a build I’m doing.
  7. Aren’t jazz pu’s different sizes, the neck Pu and bridge Pu are different l. That may account for some of problem. ‘I don’t really “see” it in the horizontal picture.
  8. The original Schecter PU’s didn’t use covers. They use a short screw which goes thru the bottom plate of the Pu. The Bardens mount the same way. Although the Bardens don’t need covers(at least the ones I had), they are a sealed Pu. Much like these Brantley PUs that I had custom ordered . These are tapped PUs I had custom made for a walnut build I’m doing. These PUs will not be getting covers.
  9. Overall, I have no problems with the Bardens. The are powerful, I I thought they have lots of “punch”. I bought them because I had one of my original Schecter pu’s fail. The Bardens were the only ones that fit the same way as my originals, the screws are on the bottom flange of the Pu. I think you would like them. Powerful was my impression.
  10. Well, you can't say the f word on TB!
  11. Based on the “wet” boards...#2

  13. That’s a fair point, but why would I go looking for that? Life is too short.
  14. I love both sites. This is as close to FB as I get. Thank you everybody!
  15. I do know that nobody on TB down talks anyone on BC...
  16. Great to have you around!
  17. Nice to “see” you around!
  18. First gloss coat
  19. First gloss coat
  20. Gloss coat applied. Probably ready for buffing. SolarEZ is some crazy stuff!
  21. No problem, I’m making this similar to my other main player. Wired stereo with tapped PU’s with 3-way switches.
