If that's a gretsch knob i see there,i'd say it's perfect.TV JONES p.u.'s are about as good as it gets.Color is very nice too.

How many of those do you think you could make for the price of one CS La Cabronita? Half dozen?

It looks nice. I am working on one myself but it seems to be taking forever!

Very nice indeed! I love the simplicity of it.

How does it sound? Are they Filtertrons or Powertrons?

you can get the EB switches direct from EB or place like Guitar Electronics here in Phx. pricey at around $20 or so last year when I bought mine.

Thanks Traveler, I had been trying to avoid the idea of a Cabronita copy.

Very nice job.

I've just started my own "Cabronita", a body made out of an Ikea's kitchen board, a P90 instead of TV jones, finish in chili red with 2 cream knobs and pickguard.
