IYV Mustang, but I modded it the point of no return.

- This is my doom guitar. If you can find an IYV mustang or Harley Benton (they are the same) they make Ames one modding platforms.
As you can see this one is now essentially a more accurate pawnshop mustang. Considering the original didn’t have real wide ranges.
Woah that sounds good, great job
Thank you! I really appreciate it! Those brandonwound wideranges really impress me. I can’t believe how articulate they star even when I throw all my pedals on.
Cool build. If you run two 500k/250k stacked volume pots and wire the pups to the pots then to the selector switch. You can wire from the slider switch that splits the coils to the 250k side and full humbucker through the 500k side.
Coils split/single coils can sound a little harsh and thin through 500k pots.
It’s actually 1 Meg pots. That’s what fender used back then.
This is what I am wanting to do with fender dual pots, can't find a wiring diagram for it so guess I am going to have to figure it out.
@@xrenox1 so instead of having the pickups go directly to the switch have them go to the pots then go to the switch then the output of the switch to the jack.
Sweet!
Thank you!
nice jangly clean tones 😊🤘
Thank you!
I kept mine stock but I do really love the jag bridge
I thinking of getting a Wilkinson Roller bridge...hoping it can sit on the existing pins because I am lazy..
Wow well good luck now.
Sounds great! Where did you get the amp knob from?
I added locking tuners and the Mastery Bridge/Trem to mine. I love it!
Thank you! Lovemyswitches they are great! I can’t recommend them enough, they are where I get my parts for my pedals.
@@googaboogalooThanks for sharing! I’d been looking at making modding mine to a 3 way toggle as well. You did a great job!
That’s a dope build!
What pedals are you using?
Sounded like a phase of flanger at 4:34
Thank you! That’s my ds1 my retrosonic flanger and my epoch boost.
@@googaboogaloo Thanks for sharing your pedal chain!
I’m going to check out more of your videos.
I see you have a lot with pedals and I’ve been chasing that perfect overdriven flanger growl 👍
Think Adam Jones sound
Sounds great man what pedal are you using around 8:20 ? so cool
Thank you! that’s my retro sonic flanger and my boss ds1 into my epoch boost.
I looks great and I love the idea but honestly you should replace the pick guard or alter the bottom horn part, it’s a really good attempt at it but a proper pick guard would really bring it all together.
I handmade the pick guard
Seems thicker than a standard Mustang, is it heavier? The mods were super.😊
Thank you! It is thicker. The bodies on there are like 1 3/4” which is insane considering the originals were 1 1/2”. It’s not bad, maybe about as heavy as my strat.
Did the Jaguar bridge and vibrato fit or did you have to further modify the body?
I had to rout a little because some Jaguar teens have a lock on them and I needed to rout the body to fit that
Do know if you can change the neck to a fender one?
Would a fender neck fit into it? I’ve got one of my own and was curious about upgrading it
It the neck you have is 24” scale and 2 1/8” it should fit.
What tunomatic bridge did you install on it? Does it sit on the original posts? Thanks
I used a Schaller and I used a caliper to measure the posts of that and drilled the posts that were in the body out and they just slipped right in. It’s not ideal but it worked for me. I only used the Schaller bridge because I could adjust the string spacing easily and the radius matched the neck.
@@googaboogaloo Thank-you...you are very talented at modding. I wanna do this upgrade or at least put plumbers tape around the little screws to stop the saddles from rattling.
@@Floodland-bn3ol thank you! Thats a good idea
You can’t go to a 24 3/4 scale unless you move the bridge.
No you would have to move it back 3/4” I don’t think a conversion neck would work either. But I have a mustang body I’m making 24.75. I haven’t fit the neck yet, I have to glue the fingerboard board on the neck before I can get that far.

It’s neat but definitely not modded to the point of no return, it would be pretty easy to put it back to stock.
Fair enough. I do still have the pickguard.
I know you think you’re hearing coil tapping but your not. You can’t.
It is a coil split though I wired it that way. So I can select half the pickup. I had them custom made so that I could do that .
