It would be nice if Warmoth would offer bridge options on Jaguar, Mustang, Jag-Stang 24" scale bodies.  Having a Stoptail/T-O-M for a Mustang would be cool, or a Schaller flat mount bridge for a Jaguar etc...  Why not more bridge options for us 24" scale guitar lovers?

Unless I'm really missing something you can custom order any bridge routing option on those body style in addition to the "standard" for each of them; 2 of the 4 Jazzmaster bodies in the Showcase have "any way you want to finish the route" tremolo routing; WillyK has a JazzMaster with a Tele hardtail bridge on this site under Misc Guitars:

..and I know I've seen a Jaguar or JAzzMaster with a TOM and 2 HBs before, may have been on the old forum

I think WillyK has made a JazzMaster that has a tele bridge on it and a humbucker in the neck spot.  Yup, it was a flamed Korina body with a tele route for the electronics.  I thought it was a really cool idea for a hybrid.

The body is already routed to hold any two pickups, HB or straight or angled singles. Warmoth will leave out the standard Mustang bridge route - that's one nasty whammy, hard to believe Fender reissued the exact original with the hideous banjo frets, foul whammy, despicable pickups and low-rent tuners... I wanted concentric tone/volume pots for each pickup and the three-way on top, so I had to dig out a hole for a side-mount jack and enlarge the holes in the metal control plate. I had Warmoth make the pickguard too, $28 I believe.
I wanted a really high-grade, little guitar I could play in bed, in my rocking chair, in a car etc. It's a little screamer, for sure -
fast-fast-fast and you can reach some weird chords, just don't write parts on it that you expect to play on a a 25.5" boatneck. :cool01:
