Members Flod Posted July 31, 2007 Members Share Posted July 31, 2007 I think it looks great! But then again it would look even greater with dual jazzes in each position and some nice switches to choose coils Oi, you forgot to ad another knob!

You're right Jazz Ad, it has been done before. It was done by Schecter, and its called the Model T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Super Bass Posted July 31, 2007 Members Share Posted July 31, 2007 The Model T has been in production since the early eighties. It was also available with a single P pickup and two J's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr.Mow Posted August 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 1, 2007 Bollocks.. I'm gonna make it! Have sourced a nice affordable Jazz Bass neck, will carve the headstock down for the Tele shape..Ash body, get it from USACG.. Haven't decided on a colour yetString through Tele bass bridgeHaven't figured out what to do with the controls yet, I'd love to be able to keep the 2 knob setup, but know the Jazz really needs 3.. hmm.. 3 just looks wrong Gonna be sweeeet!

Perhaps neck vol on the front pot, bridge vol on the back pot outer ring and tone on the inner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
