    My friend Fender has found a substitute for pirat/comssa bodies. They are the thin body Mr. Sketch Markers. http://www.amazon.com/Sketch-Scented-Watercolor-Markers-Colored/dp/B0006HXGQ2/ref=lh_ni_t They work great if you put waterfall mod caps on them and color the caps the same as the body (spray paint or sharpie).

    More slick than Comssa body, but it is hard to describe. It is fairly slippery.

    Are the caps similar to comssa caps? Looks like a good way to make a Yelo mod.

    i can tell you 100% now that saying comssa/pirat sub in the same sentence is wrong. both soooooo different.

    I really hope my mod's body doesnt switch freely between feeling like a comssa and super pirat.

    lol, more pirat than comssa, just to clarify. For some reason comssa came to mind because I spin a comssa waterfall. There is very little similarity between this and a comssa body actually, except maybe thickness. Having had limited time spinning a pirat-bodied mod (Fender's Minwoo) I am not super familiar with how a pirat feels, but this body is definitely more along the lines of a super pirat than a comssa body. A better title would be "waterfall mod body sub" or something along those lines, since I used it in a custom variation of a waterfall mod.
