gemdids Posted March 1, 2024 Posted March 1, 2024 The ford mustang spark plug pickup selector is a nice touch though 🤣 2 Quote

Newfoundfreedom Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 I received an offer. It's a bargain now! 1 Quote
oldslapper Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 To be fair, it’s a good offer. Take the £399 to take the monstrosity off his hands. Oh hold on…. 😳 1 3 Quote
tauzero Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 I saw the pickup switch and immediately thought "spark plug tip". But who'd have known it was from a Ford Mustang, with the vastly increased performance from a Ford Focus spark plug tip, despite being absolutely identical? You must admire his pride in the sanding burns on the truncated headstock, and leaving half an original logo on the headstock. His supply of enormous white felt washers is evidently inexhaustible and a source of great pride to him. Not sure how well a 7-string pickup with pole pieces will handle 6 strings, or how the butchered neck pickup will cope with life when it looks most likely to start self-harming. 1 Quote
Doctor J Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 I wonder did he use Tone Tipp-ex for the side-dots? 1 Quote
gemdids Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 I sometimes wonder if he’s making a mockumentary about the sh*t people will buy online, I can’t fathom any other reason why he does this! 3 Quote
Clarky Posted March 4, 2024 Posted March 4, 2024 Well at least we can settle down on a cold, rainy Spring evening and enjoy Book One of his trilogy 1 Quote

Bit of a shame he used the original and rather rusty screws to secure them. Edited March 7, 2024 by Dan Dare 1 Quote
TheGreek Posted March 7, 2024 Posted March 7, 2024 Would expect nothing less. In fact he probably ruined the original set and used some he found in the garage. 2 1 Quote
Dan Dare Posted March 9, 2024 Posted March 9, 2024 Just noticed something else. Has he glued those bits of perforated plastic to one of the pickups to direct the sound of the strings better? Yes, I know magnetic pickups aren't microphones and detect movements of a piece of ferrous wire in a magnetic field, rather than vibrations of air molecules. But I can't think of any other reason he may have done it. Quote
