Yes the input jack fitting is reversed, I do it to any Strat, no reason I just do, there are 3 Allen bolts in the 1st 3rd and 6th positions. I keep going back to this joker, I just like everything about it…..the waterside transfer I made were a joy to fit it, takin 2 but jointed A4 sheets each for the front and the back, the transfers are really fragile, but hey! nothing ventured…….all sealed and finished with polyurethane floor varnish, its rough and ready but it plays a treat, intonates and is good with or without slide….clean or overdriven….

Go on! Try one! You know you want to!

Superb! Loving the first sculpted guitar, whats the story with the pickups? Are they available or custom made?

that  guitar  is  modeled  after  the  teisco spectrum 5   with  its  6   triple  square pole   pickups  .,  the   pickups  on  that  guitar  are   exact   modern  repoductions  of  them  .  i  dont   really  want to  reveal  my  source   ,,  they  were hard  enough to  find    for  the  last  30  yrs  .   lol.
