Done... The Immigrant

Posted by Dave Lynas on January 21, 2016 at 4:33pm

Fixed the electronics today adding an Elmar single pole (bug) pickup. One last coat of varnish on the biscuit and neck. And installed 10mm "smokey" mop dots. She's done and sounds wonderful through my little Vox 35 watt and acoustic.

Hi Elmar. Glad to hear from you. Yes the Bug works great for three string. It favors the middle string slightly. I don't have the pup real close to the strings. About half inch. It sounds great! Thanks Elmar for your great pups. Now I'm out of Elmars. Can I order more? ... Dave

If Donald Trump stops by, hide the Immigrant.

It looks great! What makes me wonder is the single pole for all three strings - seems to work, isn't it? Are they equally loud?

Storage is a problem. The Immigant is in the isle in the living room waiting for interrogation.
