jazz bass transmogrified...

I got the gold hardware I ordered from WD and Warmoth today and transmogrified the MIM Jazz Deluxe. I didn't see the fingerprints on the pickguard before I snapped the picture, but what the hell - no one's perfect.

The Schaller tuners posed some problems as the bushings are too small (I shimmed them) and I had to drill a buncha holes to mount them (I don't think MIM basses are gonna have a lot of resale value anyway). The Gotoh bridge is a drop-in replacement and the saddle height and intonation was even reasonably close out of the box.

Anyway, here's a pic. I'm finished with this one, I think.

cheers,
