My Kosta Clone "Bottom Master"

Post by Psyre »

Hey guys, so I floated this idea past Kosta in a conversation we had, and he is all for it, and been extremely helpful thus far.
Pretty much a mix between his new baritone, and my not so secret desire to pretty much be Kosta, has led me to feel that I want one very badly. So this is where I will be directing my questions along the way, which start with:

Does anyone know where I can get an HH routed Jag body, that does NOT tremolo routing and proper jag switches.

Blacktop Jaguar bodies are on ebay for like $150ish I think. They're routed HH and just have the pickup switch

Right, that was my first solution, but they are not routed for the Jaguar switching system, just the 3-way toggle.

Oh good! They exist! Thanks man, This project is going to be getting off the ground around Christmas, just trying to get all the pricing and such moving now. Gonna be doing my best to get a matching paint number when I go home, since that sparkle navy is one of the raddest colors I have seen.
