My various mods with pix

Hi guys, i've been visiting this site and forum since about 1999. I've had my jag-stang since 1998.

I thought some of you may be interested in the various mods I've done to my guitar over the years so here goes!

The first thing I did was change the picks ups, a dimarzo super distortion in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan cool rails in the neck. I then removed the tremolo springs and bolted the bridge down, as well as changing the saddle for a goto one which i had to grind to keep the action as low as possible. I also re-wired the guitar following the schematic on the main page. I also added a duel tone push-pull pot (which i later removed and never got around to re-fitting)

Next I changed the tuners for some brushed chrome locking ones. I changed the nut for an LSR roller nut and added two roller string trees.

I've never been happy with the input and switch location (I kept hitting my finger's on the switch) so i decided to have the input on the side of the guitar and install 3 way toggle switch in place of it. I've completely removed the switches and plan on getting a custom scratch-plate made up without the switch holes.

Anyway enough of my rambling here are some pix, I would love to know people's thoughts on the guitar.

I dont bother with the whammy anymore, the roller nut is ideal for smooth tuning

ThreeStringGuitar

I really dig the input and 3-way switch mod. I am quite a fan of that out of phase sound myself tho heh. Great looking guitar tho.

Very nice. Personally I prefer the original look. The only mod I've done is change the pickups to s duncans.

http://www.jag-stang.com/forum/viewtopi ... highlight=

liked ur idea Roller string guides , gonna add it to my jaggie soon

and i liked the chrome knobs , gonna add too

i will add on mine an killswitch and remove the tone

maybe in future i will try do another body to my jag-stang

or get an luthier for dio one

neck is perfect and body is trash

my concept for an perfect jag-stang

- Swamp Ash Body

- Straight Humbucker Seymour duncan Jb and Seymour duncan SSL-1 at neck angled

- Tail will be Ferrules and Bridge will be an Gotoh T.O.M or Tonepro T.O.M

- Schaller strap locks

- Confort Curves and arm curves , jag-stang major uncofortable

like that :

why bother getting a jagstang in the first place

I love the jag-stang shape and look, it plays so well. i just needed to tweak it to my own specs 😀
