kodiakblair Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) Very bored so used up some bits laying about the house. Freebie paulownia body, seller claimed to be in London and gave 5 day delivery time. I got a refund after 4 weeks of excuses. Turned up from China the next day. G4M neck bought from here £18 Entwistle PBXN. £10 from here,came in 2 halves with no covers or wire. Varitone pot. From spares drawer,£2.50 to build inc caps. Rest from spares box. Black ink and poor attempt at silver grain fill £10 Murder to get a decent photo. Very pleased with the action. Test fit showed it needed a shim,got it bang on 1st attempt 👍 6lbs and £30 all in 😎 Edited April 22, 2020 by kodiakblair photo too wee 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye it's light and it's bloody soft too 😀 Only holes bored were the 4 neck screws and the bridge ground. Bridge,strap buttons and scratchplate I just put in by screwdriver 👍 On the strap it doesn't dive as much as I expected. A mate has a paulownia jazz body due some time next month,glad I've had this one for a test run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
