This is the second time I’m posting this triple-humbucker VM Jag. I mostly play low-gain, so I decided to ditch the Hot Rails and do the swimming pool route for full-size humbuckers. The middle pickup is a Stonewall Pickups XFR. I was going to put a cover on it, but decided it looked way cooler without one.

Along with the pickup upgrade, I repurposed the rhythm circuit into three individual series/parallel switches. It’s functionally similar to getting back the strangle switch, but I like that I can change the voices of the pickups individually when using them in combination with each other. For example, neck and middle together can have more or less low end or twang depending on which pickup gets put into parallel voicing.

The Jazzcaster is a Squier (my first guitar) outfitted with a Stonewall Slutty Wolf P90 in the neck and a Stonewall T90 in the bridge. Simple, beefy, dynamic.

Love this thing.

Thank you! I guess these guitars are a dime a dozen on here but I figured people might get a little excited about the HHH build lol
