Good luck continuing with this cool project!
Thanks chazmo..taking it carefully but keen to roll on! The decision to use the JBardens was partly because I already had the 25year old unused set, but also because I really like them in my Musicman Silhouette, although those aren't the same wiring as the two-tones (see pic). Bit of a gamble but then everything is with this project! Thanks for the support! 73856E11-730A-4F3F-8CF9-B62B496B43E4.jpeg

Hello Everyone...a long time since there was progress on this project, but moving now with a beautiful set of bridge parts and knobs from Hans. I owned the pickups from new 25 years ago when I was UK importer for Joe Barden, so decided to use them instead of the EMG originals. And got an original case from Beyer's just now...D289A75B-D2A1-4924-B342-FC7462AD95AF.jpegScreenshot 2022-03-17 at 08.21.10.png
