Jaguar Mods: Roller vs. Mustang Bridge | Chinese Version Bad | 2nd Tone | Active Buffer
Bridge shootout of a modified Mustang Bridge and a Wilkinson roller bridge. Both are good choices for a Jaguar, Jazzmaster (any kind of "offset" guitars) or Bigsby guitars.
Stay away from the cheap Chinese knock-off roller bridge though.
Also, I'm installing a 2nd Tone Capacitor inspired by the original Jazzmaster wiring.
Finally, I'm showing you how to get glassy active pickup sounds, with any passive pickup, using an active buffer.
I hope you'll enjoy. Comments or questions are always welcome.
thank you
