Love the white and polished aesthetic.


Yeah. I'm thinking of maybe trying out the Novak WRHB in chrome and getting a black pick guard. Then upgrading to a Mastery bridge and an AVRI tremolo.

Just curious if any of you are still waiting on the second invoice? Seeing everyone else's coming in is causing some moderate upset :cry:

These are soo rad. Do they make a short scale neck? I feel like I need an aluminum neck musicmaster in my life.

Yeah. Next run I may consider getting a Gibson scale length for my Toronado. Could be cool.

oh man that would be gnarly. Might have to incur some more CC debt. I could go back and look but where are you ordering these from the FB page?

Dude has a square heel T-style neck on Reverb for $800 plus shipping. Not mine, just a heads up.

Got to rip on this at practice the other night. It's awesome. It's heavy but the way I wear my guitar it did not have any bearing on me whatsoever. I wore it for the duration of a practice, about 90-minutes that night. No issues. Plays awesome.

I am going to mod the Jazzmaster a bit more, however. Really make it the Aluminum Bastard that it is. AVRI Tremolo Assembly, Staytrem Collet and Arm, Mastery Bridge/Thimble set. Trying to decide on a new set of pickups. I want something that will handle gain really well, especially with faster, tighter riffing. I looked at Creamery and that's the front runner right now. Downside is they're closed for a few weeks and then it's still a wait. Would be super into Blk/Tri but they're also closed right now. Could spring for some Novak PAF or WRHB but I don't know...

Long ago I had Novak rewind my Fender Widerange pickups. They were a huge improvement though slightly microphonic, but it was fun that way. Strongly considering getting one for my neck position if I don't get a Sustainiac first.

You and me both. I emailed Hillary to just ask how far down the line I was and got no response. Guess it'll come, eventually, maybe.
