Hi All,
I wanted to build a M49/M50 body with in my mind some improvements from the original, at the worst they are variations on a theme.
My ethos is to source locally here in the UK (Suffolk) and to have a really good product that is going to last and be strong and good value for money (those most important part most of the time!!! )
the variations i wanted from the original are the following:
Screw in base to body
2 layer mesh
45º angle of mesh (makes it much stronger)
best brass quality (not cheap Chinese brass)
connector to be somewhat universal (be able to use different connectors)
Nickel Plated finish to give a great vintage look
here are some pictures of my journey
