So, it took some time, but now the Bird is here. Haven't had the time to take any pics yet, maybe tomorrow. P J, bass player in the same band as my son, Los Bastards, got his in the same package. He couldn't belive his eyes when he saw his Bluebird.
I opened her immediately, to change the tone control to it's proper place. The cable wasn't long enough, so I have to do it another day when there's more time.
Has anyone got any ideas about the saddle? Are you satisfied with it? Is there any way to change the pickup cover to a proper one? How? And where to get a proper? Control knobs? Suggestions?
The neck is really great! Slim! Fast! The colour, sonic blue, is so cool!
No need to change the strings. I'm used to Rotosound, 45-105, since Adam was the officer in charge, and these suits me perfect.
Any idea concerning upgrading is welcome, though it really doesn't seem like a priority matter. Thursday night I'll try it out with the band.
Feels kinda strange that we're where we are. I'm very thankful to all you guys, and possibly most to Rob, the high-flying Dutchman, who rode the show to a happy ending. Thanks, guys!
