Harley Benton JA-60 Mods #3

The guitar shop fitted the Catswhisker mini-humbucker in the bridge a few weeks ago, and it sounds great. But I think the CTS 300k pots made a big difference too, as they seem to have put a bit of 'life' into the Roswell Jazzmaster pickup.

I decided to fit a flashy pickguard just to finish the job off properly.

I had to slightly widen a couple of holes in the new pickguard because of the CTS pots!

The finished result! What do you think?

I was impressed that for such an inexpensive guitar, the pickup selector switch was made in Korea!
