Bengal burst? That's beautiful!

I much prefer the Staytrem to the Mastery bridge, on the Jag where I had the Mastery I felt like the G string always rang weird, it felt/sounded kind of like there was a little snare drum-ish 200hz "puh" on the attack of notes. And I didn't like that the intonation adjusts via pairs of saddles...

My chambered black korina Jazzmaster is noticably louder/more resonant than any of my others. Also have an alder Musikraft strat that's not chambered but still crazy light, and that one's real resonant as well. They all sound great plugged in.

On all my Charvels the jack's on the back, no bend needed.

I told my wife, whenever we move to our next house we're painting all the rooms classic Fender colors. Seafoam Green, Shell Pink, Sonic Blue, Capri Orange. I was kidding but not really.

OK so I had a Warmoth neck sitting here, I just threw it on the Charvel body and the holes lined up. I didn't put the screws in all the way but it seemed fine. A friend gifted me an old 1990 Charvel ST Custom and I put a Fender neck on that, holes lined up fine. FWIW, for that guitar, I had...
