Danelectro Longhorn Guitar (2/2)

"The Pumpkin"

Automotive acrylic lacquer is not as awful as nitrocellulose, it has much less propensity to simply self-destruct, and this guitar has held up pretty well. Stay far away from nitrocellulose, it is antique garbage.

Sometime around 2015, while I wasn't paying attention, Danelectro snuck this out. Mine is the original. In fact, I sent them a picture of it years ago, and probably gave them the idea.

Jazzmaster Bass 2

This started as a stock Squier Jaguar bass body. This 32" conversion neck was my first bass neck build. Stock pickups ( which are pretty decent ) with cream-colored covers and upgraded electronics. I used a MusicMan bridge to evoke the round Jazzmaster tailpiece, and likewise cream Strat knobs.  I think it is a vast improvement over the Jaguar it started out as. The Cowbell inherited some of the Jaguar electronics.
