i ordered most of the parts this past weekend from a couple of ebay stores. the strap locks look as good as guitar center for $6! i also have tuners, bridge, jack, jack plate, pickups, knobs, neck plate, switch, and string trees on the way for less than $60. the tremolo/whammy isn't going to be in stock for 4-6 weeks. there's no hurry with all the cold weather right now. i doubt i will get the body ready for a couple months, so it could be awhile between updates.
known parts left to acqure: whammy/tremolo, pickguard screws, finished neck, maybe a nut, strap, gig bag, paint, and poplar scrap for trem cavity.
stuff i already have: shielding, wire, pick guard material, volume pot, lacquer, body
hope to end up with: a decent playing orange jazzmaster style guitar with black pick guard and chrome hardware.
