After a whole year of having this body, listing it on reverb, taking it off and then actually going through with building it. It’s complete! American Professional II body with all fender electronics, righty bender Japan tremolo, AmProII bridge, pure vintage pickups, and my maple strat neck from my first guitar. The pots also turn righty for a better sweep.
Got the studio classic head on Monday, and this thing rips!! Extremely loud even on 5 watt mode, I can’t play it without an attenuator unless nobody is home. But overall I cannot recommend it enough if you love that early thrash tone.
Kinda sounds like a dumb question but I’m currently doing a partsmaster rn with an American professional 2 body. I have a pro 2 bridge and I ordered these nylon bridge thimbles but that doesn’t seem to be the last piece. I’ve had this on the bench for 3 weeks now getting “the final part” and I’m honestly tired of digging on my own. If anyone could help or send a picture or whatever, anything helps atp.
P.S. I have a Japanese tremolo and I’m afraid the string spacing won’t fit on the American specs.
So I work at guitar center, and recently found there’s a bundle with all the electronics(except pickups) and I can get a good discount on them along with pure vintage pickups. Now I’m just trying to find somewhere that could provide a body for me, and if they make pickguard a that would be great too. Anything helps thanks!!
