Very nicely shaped heel.  I just want to touch it!

In the words of Swiss Tony, it's alot like making love to a beautiful woman 

Oh ffs... you were getting me to finger your joint earlier... is that what you were thinking at the time?

You should've known that

A chambered Evo build, I've been dying to try these mojotrons out, I'm trying out a Les trem because it's lighter than a bigsby, if I don't like it I can put a stop tail on it

I need to finish the pickup routes and I'm making a headstock veneer to do matching paint

It's very jangly so should sound about right

Getting near to finishing with a few bits left to do, weights are 7.8lb, 6.8lb, 6lb from left to right

Finally onto finishing, aged TV yellow DC junior and my lightweight evo is getting an ambered look like the old flying v, I'll be doing a stinger just for a bit of contrast

Stinger looks great to me

Figured English ash looking rather nice, not much longer before It can make some noise

That looks amazing, based on that grain can I nominate English ash for a Gibson scale jazzmaster.

That'll have to wait and I'm not doing a straight jazzmaster, everyone does those, mine will be a set neck or through neck and a smaller body

Sounds like perfection to me. Might have to start saving.

The whole point is to sculpt the heel and in mahogany with humbuckers would kick an sg's arse, be great with a JM trem.

Sounds good, and practical too. I’ve always though hot filtertrons would smash just about everything -the mojo one are cracking.

I'm onto finishing my mojotron build next week, love mojo pickups in everything I do.

The whole point of these is light, comfortable and easy to play, the sculpting is a game changer for me and  come from a love of vintage guitars but they're badly in need of updating.

Finished and 6.3lbs, it's bloody lovely and off to it's new home soon.

Teyeplayer

So cool!

Modern vintage junior style but might change to a 2 pickup model, not sure what finish yet.
