Bit of a Re-re-re-think

Well, I have this theory that other than odd things happening, if something stays on my 'Coming Soon' list for an age, it means I am not entirely happy about something, and The 668 One is kinds feeling like that.

You probably don't remember, but the idea was to do a Wiko influenced Strat - single Mojo take on the legendary Kay Speedbump, and there we are.

But it hasn't happened, so I've played Michael Finnigan, and changed things around.

It's good.

So instead it will now be a Tele but with a Strat tremolo, still have the red pearl and black combo for a nod in the geezer's direction, and it will of course have the Speedbump in pride of place.

Why? Well, no good reason, just if it don't feel right, it don't happen..

Blah blah, bored now

La la laaa

Do Tha Bump

Well, you know how much I love a 'different' pickup, one that is out of the ordinary that gives that little something different to the rest. I like that, guitars that sound as well as look a bit unique.

So top excitement when Marc at Mojo Pickups told me he was doing something special based on an old Kay Speedbump Humbucker, basically a big fat magnet with loads of wire wrapped around it...and as per I-just-gotta-have-it.

The question of course is what to do with it, and as I normally do in such moments I find myself thinking of a single pickup jobby, so that is the likely plan.

Don't ask me what and I can't be bothered to think of a name, but there we are..

La la laaaa
