I bought a Kent solidbody from a Pawnshop in Winnipeg years ago.I thought it was a mandolin untill I saw it hanging up in my instrument repair shop in between 2 other mandos.It's got some seriously cool things on it,and I have customized it so it rocks even more!First ,who would have guessed it would come with a radioused fingerboard in 69!? (That is THE weirdest thing about it!).I took off the machines, and customized a set of sealed gear Schallers to go on it.I also refretted it with guitar fretwire and, when everything is said and done, it's a rock n roll machine.I don't really like the scale,but the reason I did all the work was to turn it into a precision electric instrument.I wanted to be able to give it to a PRO electric player and he(?) not be able to find a thing wrong with it.I THINK I succeded.
