This cool Fender Mexican Jaguar was brought in as the customer wanted to give it an overhaul after it spending years being unplayed. After discussing what he wanted, we decided on upgrading the pickups and custom wiring, along with giving it a new bridge to replace the rusted one, along with a full service. The pickups were a Dimarzio Super Distortion in the bridge and a custom made single coil by Jaime at The Creamery, which would be matched to the Super Distortion. |
The final result with the scratchplate fitted, the single coil sized humbucker blended in well with the rest of the guitar. To match the high output of the Super Distortion, Jaime at The Creamery custom made a Darkline neck pickup, spec'd out to be balanced with the bridge humbucker. We also installed two push/pull pots, allowing a reverse phase function and a series/parallel option to get the most of out the pickups, creating a massive amount of tonal options combined with the Jaguar switching! |
