Tom 13817 Posted July 25, 2020 Author Share Posted July 25, 2020 Tempted to whack a lethal humbucker in the bridge, have the two single coils as dummy pickups, smash the fuck out of it & cover it in stickers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34190 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I was thinking rose gold paint job, gold hardware, tortoiseshell pickguard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a Jaguar Baritone and it's a great guitar so I can imagine the Cabronita would be fun to play. I see it has P-90s so it will be meaty.

Tom 13817 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 I actually managed to wire the thing by myself. I know most adults should probably be capable of this but I’m happy with myself. Got some strings coming this afternoon, so I’ll give it a whirl. Also, as predicted the neck isn’t a fender given that the serial number is a Jazz bass. Still £30 for the lot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re great guitars, I had a Squier Cabronita with a bigsby (avoid) and a Fender Cabronita in gold with dual TV jones (purchase) Ive never played a baritone but I could fancy it.

Got myself this nice vintage chorus. This arrived today. Ive been grafting like mad so haven’t got to try it yet but it looks so cool I’m not bothered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhett Schull mentioned Bukovac and i've been hooked onto it since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't believe when he said he was in his 50s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13817 Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 Fucking hell, the second hand market is tragic at the moment. Lots of bargains to be had at the expense of musicians suffering the Covid effect. The rest is utter lunatics sticking RARE in front of any old shite and hiking the price up. “90s modelling amp, RARE!” £1000 There’s a reason it’s rare mate. It’s absolutely shite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
