Club Moollon

Question Moollon Brothers and sisters. I have noticed Moollon Classic P's have 13-hole pickguards, yet the gold anodized pickguard on mine is 10-hole. Since there are no unused holes, this pickguard is original to the Moollon build. So, that means the holes for the tug-bar and pickup may have original, or perhaps drilled by a previous owner. Be that as it may, would you install a tug-bar, just for the aesthetics? pickup-cover? The holes are alray there in the wood.

First off, damn fine job on the re-fin!
Personally, I'm with 600ohms on this one...I'd go ahead with the tug bar, especially if the holes are already drilled. The pickup cover is easy enough to take on/off as the mood strikes, too.

thx! I agree with you guys on the tug-bar. Going to make one to match the finish. I feel more confident now with builds, so I just ordered a Telecaster body and neck, and will build a Capri Orange relic Tele with top components. I really don't play guitar, so I will sell it once completed. Thanks for the ongoing feedback.

I had YJ install a tug bar and ash tray during my build. I say yes!

What colour is that SLO?
Sonic Blue, built in 2018. This picture was taken sometime last year. It’s always looked different depending on the light; sometimes leaning more whiteish, sometimes blueish. After 6 years the color has changed a bit and is looking more “creamy” as well as adding a little bit of a yellow tint under certain light.

I ordered it right after seeing the NBD pic of @Joe Clark ’s sonic blue Moollon.
 
After roughly 38 months she finally arrived on Monday!
I'm really blown away by the craftmanship, tone, playability.. everything really.
Can't thank YJ and Andi enough for delivering this amazing instrument and excellent customer service.
I'm really tempted to order a J aswell..

So glad to hear someone getting their new Moollon.
Congrats, it looks killer.
 
Hi Club Moollon!
Just got my first Moollon J from a great fellow Talk-basser today. Can't wait to play it and record some videos. She's a beauty!

As the seller of this beautiful J, I am really pleased to have been able to sell the bass to our new friend here, who will fortunately get more use out of it than I, me being primarily a P guy. The icing on the cake was that we were able to meet in person here in SOCAL, which is such a pleasure and departure from the usual shipping situation.
Enjoy your new bass in good health and welcome to the club!

Thank you Lala! I appreciate you sharing the bass' history with me as well as the conversation. I will take care of her! :bassist:

Congrats!!! You skipped the line. :laugh: Beautiful bass. What color is that? I ordered OTM and I hope it comes out a bit like this.
