Model 2 (3) Mutt Completed ...

[Franx]

It took a while to get the Kahler Killer - just to see that the Killer has the "standard" size inserts, not the large ones to fit in the holes . I should have checked that before ...

... anyway: Model 3 body, Model 2 neck, the rest: leftovers







That X2N just rocks !!!

Looks Good

[ZZB]

That looks great! How do you like the Killer?

[nhspike]

Very sweet looking.
Do you have any close-up shots of the Killer?
It's all blackness from here.
Love the black and white theme... classy.

[Razor]

Nicely done! How easy was it to install the Killer?

[ZZB]

I replaced a Fulcrum with a Killer and at least for me it was 100% drop in. It's really a great bridge. Was impressed with the engineering.

"Close-up shots" coming up tomorrow !

Was it easy to install the Killer ? Well, the hole of the original insert (Fulcrum) is 1/2 inch and here in Austria you can't buy "pegs" in 1/2 inch ! So I took a 12 mm peg and filled the (remaining) space with glue. And of course I didn't have a 0,272" bit (~ 6,9 mm) for the Killer insert; I used a 7 mm bit and it worked !

The "classy black and white theme" - YES Blackmore's Strat on the Made in Japan Cover !!! I bought a Fender Strat last year just because of that "classy" look !

[Franx]

... some Killer - close up's:







I'll have to go for a different pickguard - maybe white perloid ?

@ZZB: I guess, you just swapped the bridge and had a body with the inserts still in ? And you are right about the quality and "feel" of the bridge. Perfect !!!

Yeah, I just swapped bridges. I'm lazy.

Do they still make the Killer system?

[Franx]

Do they still make the Killer system?

No, not really ! But Wammiworld has "found" a few, that were "overlooked" for 15 yrs. !?! And they had free shipping to Austria; but of course - that (new) Kahler is by far the most expensive part of that mutt

[wanthairspray]

Wow, that Kahler looks brand new!
