The Jazzy I got on another forum and the Jag I ordered from Ishibashi both came today. Guitar overload. Here are pictures. :)

Pickups are out and boxed to go to a forum buddy who builds and rewinds pickups. He has the technology. He can rebuild them. He can make them faster... stronger...

I just need to get those done and a new tremolo and it will be ready to rock. Very excited!

Pickups came! They are great! Shawn did a great job rebuidling the stock pickups. Sound clip to follow. Only issue I have is the bridge ground in the tremolo route is causing the trem to bind.

Japanese tremolo with Classic player trem arm and socket installed and 100% awesome! Arm won't fall out and the trem actually works now. :) I did a second pickup demo with all controls at five. (Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass, and Reverb) Thought it might give a more neutral sound demo vs the one with my personal settings.

Love the white PU's and knobs with the white guard.
Great looking and excellent sounding Jazz you've got there.

niiiice. Don't see the sunburst with mint or white pickguards very much but I think it looks like a pretty cool color scheme

Thanks! It originally had white on white on sunburst and it looked too sterile for my taste. The mint mixed it up a little. :D
