Del Ray rebuild is finished

I filed one fret that was high and tightened the pup down and she is finished. Plays smooth and clean, low action, great tone cap that really changes the tone to a deep moan. I love this git.

  • Les, i opened the hood and got out the magnifier. The good orange drop reads: iC 104K 1223 250H MSR. I don't know what all that means, but it works the best of any cap i've tried on 250 pots.

  • Hey Les, thanks. Wish i could tell you what cap value it is, but it comes from a cap grab bag a fellow put together with about 20 caps each different. It's an orange drop with lots of tiny condensed type. I couldn't tell what value. I need a more powerful mag glass to tell you. Maybe i'll open her up and get a good loop to see. I want to know too. This one sure works well. I could tell it worked just from the tap test before installation.
  • fantastic job dave what value and type cap did you use  good luck with your next project

  • Thanks Maddog, Uncle John. I think this format is a history channel. CBN photos would make a nice history book on CBGs and also a great how to. I've learned a lot from this great site, not to mention the friendships that develop. I wish i could get to some of the "Junkstocks" and big meets where you'd get to sample lots of builds and meet some of these mysterious characters like Bug, Pick, and yourselves.
  • That is a beauty.   We need you in a History Channel Geetar Resto program.  Actually, that would be entirely neat.   Throw in cbgs and the pottery and those great women's torsos you made. 

  • Perfection!
