Changing one thing into something else?

I was waiting till I hit the skids before I tried the water into wine thing. The guys in the alley will love that one. It know it's is not a Casino but I had to tell Lina what I did to her favorite guitar. Sounds like a Casino but it's fuzzy around the stop tail. Now for my next trick I will be changing an off brand Jaguar into a Jazz Master. I need a bottle now that I committed. I have a loaded pick guard and as soon as it sobers up I will put on the Jag body. I have a tremolo on the way and other stuff to fool the eyes but maybe the ears. Roller bridge and a normal stop tail. I have to dig a lot of wood to do the tremolo thing.
What do you feel, is this stupid? I have a jellyfish in the freezer and I can kill time putting a spin in that thing. I will try the Jazz Master if it gets weird I can toss it out with the other fish I was trying to improve.
 
Is that a Joe Barden p'up in the bridge? Sure looks like one.
That is a Jay Turser that I never really liked much. I changed the pickups and the extra knob is a blender pot. Hot Rail and the other pickups are modified. Jazz Master pickups are not the same as P90s so I found out last night on you tube.

My Dremel skills have improved to a drunken monkey level. It should work out fine. That Strat style bridge and tremolo won't come close to working. It needs to be at least a centimeter back.

Kev when I looked at your Strat, I thought that was a Seymour Duncan Hot rails in the Bridge.

They are Lace Sensors dude! I love them and years ago they were stock in an upper scale Strat. I think like late 1960s. I can't recall the model of Strat but they are just as great now as then. I installed them and a list and stuff on my Strat. A seven way switch, a coil split, a titanium Tremolo block and locking tuners. A roller nut and roller saddles. I found a set of pearl tuning knobs and now I need to learn how to play it. A group of friends always called a white Strat with a maple finger board the perfect guitar, no real reason. I just wanted to make that on a bit better than perfect.
 
I'll borrow from the discourse of the fellows below.
I like Bacon, I like pork chops, cause they taste gooooood.
Some say pigs are filthy animals, but personality goes a long way, like Arnold on Green Acres.



and my insipiration for learning Surf Rider by The Lively Ones
