Finally…

I remember because that setup sounded glorious.
Looking forward to seeing @vchizzle and the modding too! Great grab...
Good memory! I’ve talked about this less than the Mira or the dc-22, but yes, getting an S2 Singlecut standard satin and getting a pickguard made to house P90’s.

Now I need to decide real p90’s or noiseless could even try humbucker size. Someone has a set of Fralin’s for sale local.
I've been eyeing these for a while. They were everywhere it seemed for a while and then they all vanished.
I have been looking for the same but the tobacco burst and then maybe toss in some 5708's, thornbuckers or some antiquities.
Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

I haven’t seen one of these, but the Vela look sharp in that burst. Played one at Dave’s and it almost went home. Had it been a semi hollow I don’t think I’d have had the willpower.

Incoming. Been saying for years I would get one of these for mod purposes.

Close to 20 years ago, I had Singlecut standard satin. Thin satin nitro finish. Very resonant, rang like bell, awesome guitar. I liked it better than most other SC guitars I’ve had. So naturally I sold it!

Been interested in a p90 guitar for the last few years but didn’t want to sink a pile of money in. Gibson specials and juniors have appealed to me but I hate the way they feel. When the S2 line came around with these satin series, seemed the perfect solution and modding platform for me. Not knowing if I really want a p90 guitar, this is a great option. Can always load it with some 5708’s if not.

So I ran across this one with an extra pickguard, an extra Emerson prewired PRS type harness, extra jack and toggle upgrade and it felt meant to be. I’ll still need a custom pickguard to fit soapbars. It’s got some rash around the edges, but I don’t mind that.
Nice
 
I have a bigsby that I will donate to the mod if you want it. It is one of the longer ones from a hollow body type so may not work but… hollar if you want any pics.
Much appreciated but I have a Starla with a Bigsby, so I’m wanting this one to stay stoptail. Will be interesting to compare the 2 and see how much overlap there is.
