Just a hole.

Plug-and-go with that Tele huh?

I recently realized how little I use the tone knob after wiring my bass to be volume-only.
I only use the tone when running through certain fuzzes, or if I get a new set of rounds I'll turn it down a bit until they die.

lets try this..





okay!!

Classic Vibe 60s Strat with FenderRoadWorn Pickguard and custom made steel tremolo block.

I'm the same with guitar. Volumes knobs, occassionally. Tone knobs, never .

im like for real? no tone knobs? then you took that shit to the next level, son!


p.s.Fisheye how do you feel about that FenderRoadWorn stuff?
I honestly can't decide how I feel man. I mean it seems fake...
Does it look good? I guess, but how much does that shit cost?
I'm not tryin to offend, of course, just, does it look cool enough to be worth it?
I also wonder about buying one that looks worn in versus really wearing one in over time...
Sure not everybody can do that, but is there like some invisible trade off... (i'm baked)

The RoadWorn pickguard looks amazing, it is actually a mint green, but has aged look to it. It looks beautiful. I did the "relic job" by my self. Metal parts are aged with acid and the finish is physically distressed. Oh and the pickguard was secondhand for 20 eur.

Is that a car-door rearview mirror attached to the guitar?

Don't even have my camera around so can't get a better picture, but it's a strat. Took out all the electronics and jacks and everything and replaced, also put in some duckbucker pickups, better than the name sounds haha.

Maybe it's some magical motion-controlled thing. Like how some dude put a Wah Probe on his guitar.
Or maybe it's a mirror.

ok i think by now i can show you my "other #1" (yeah i know... but it's impossible to choose between the two).
this is an early '65 (NOV64 neck stamp) Fender Jazzmaster. i picked it up for cheap, and it had a terrible THICK and sticky old white refin, so i decided to go somewhere pretty unconventional... swapped the original tort for a used mint green AVRI and had a friend do the paint.



non-original logo... otherwise pretty much all stock. original (and pretty hot) abigail ybarra neck pickup. LOVE that one.

Pat.

Sort of.

It's a small mirror that attaches to thing using suction cups (or lick n' sticks if you're a bro)
I took those off and duct taped it on.
The knobs have been taken out and the holes are covered up by my grandmother's bingo stickers.
There's also a lot of other weird things I've added over the years on impulse on the back and sides.
