AGP #354 - “Major Mojo”
(1 Bass String + 3 String)
(Fretless Double Dowel Neck Guitar)
Scale :660.4mm / 26inches
Strings :.060NW/.044NW/.030NW/.020NW
This one is obviously based on one of the many amazing Johnny Lowebow designed builds, the Necks are 25mm/1” Merbau, the 3 String Bridge Pup is a “7.8k MGB Seven Fitty Screamer”, the 1 String Bass Neck Pup is a “2.3k MGB Micro Flat Wound”, both hardwired to separate Output Jacks. :-)

"Bloody Hell", 8 bedrooms is this a Bed & Breakfast in the making, or just lots of rooms to store Guitars (or future additions to he family)  :-D

PS: Uncle John Remiss of me to mention, but the name "Major Mojo" was inspired by one of your previous comments on another of my builds, Thanks You!  :-)

"Thanks UJ", Yes Corona is a very popular Beer among the "Yuppy Set" down here, I personally don't care for it, but, I like the look of the Bottle Caps which I think suited this particular build, and have tried quite few other Mexican and South American Beers over the yrs, some good, some not so good, can't remember their names, but, Dos Equis Amber does ring a bell   :-)

"Thanks Bones", Nice to see your still alive and kickin',I guess you've been busy working on other  building projects that don't involve CBG's   :-)

"Thanks Bob", A Sound Sample is forthcoming  :-) 

Comment by AGP # on April 30, 2019 at 10:45am

"Thanks Denbo", Yep!, sounds best when played on the Snarly Amp Settings.  :-D

Comment by AGP # on April 30, 2019 at 10:43am

"Thanks Dave", Yep!, Video soon  :-) 

Comment by AGP # on April 30, 2019 at 10:41am

"Thanks Poorness", as Johnny Lowbow keeps his own hand wound Pickup methods pretty close to his chest, this was the best alternative I could come up with, without resorting to Piezo's  :-)
