The 'Trytone'

Homemade and stamped copper volume quadrant with bakelite knob, big rusty nail bridge, thru body stringing and a lovely chunk of Elm, knots an all!The pickup is the first of Jujus slimline surface mount rail pups, which I added a rosewood veneer too. Sounds unreal! :o)

    Thanks guys - its great to get such positive feedback from all you pros and newcomers alike :o)
    Jason - you will be suprised how quickly you get pick it up. I only started building these things 12 months ago, but there are a lot of great folk around willing to share and help you out if you get stuck.

    Really Sweet Roosterman! Love that pickup from Juju too! Glad to see all the pup builders starting to do these surface mounts. This is one of the nicest ones you've done. And that says a lot! Take care - T

    I like all of it but that quadrant/bakerlite knob combo really catches the eye-nice idea.
