Okay, this is for us Guitarists here.. but first I have a response to make
You mean the original was just a flat body? I'd have to get the remake with the curves then, cause I'm too used to playing a guitar with them. I think in Journals there were some improvements for the Jagstang, but its been a while since I've looked in there.

Yeah If I remember right, the jag Stang didn't have body contours, but the Warmoth body does. I was thinking of maybe getting a REAL mustang neck (local guitar shop has one) and getting the new jagstang body, and parts then just buying some Seymour Duncan pick ups and seeing what I can do with it lol

fisrt off, good idea to move this to a seperate thread.

from what i can see in Journals, Kurt wanted to have two humbuckers by the bridge, mustang and hot rail pickups.

It diden't have the grooves in it, but it was cut thiner than the Mustang. He also wanted a diffrent headstock on it, one with three strings to a side, but it was shaped strange.

Oh so he wanted the head stock kind of like a univox?

As for the pick up configuration, I was thinking of doing a Humbucker at the neck, one at the bridge and a single in the middle, but that maybe too much. (Plus the wiring would get confusing to me)

If nothing, I am going to import a Japanese Mustang re-issue in sonic blue and just route the thing out for a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge, and a REALLY hot single in the neck... that'd probably be easier, and cheaper.

Yeah, I suppose that could work.

I had a freaky idea a while back though. A double necked guitar, but have the necks on diffrent sides instead of above and below each other. to add to the freakyness, one neck would be a Bass, and the other would be the standard 6-string guitar.

That sounds like something you could see in Spinal Tap!
But that would be hard to play on stage :o

Yeah, I know. I figure a lot of hammer-ons and pull offs would pry work best :lol: .
