So, finally this is almost done - there are a few tweaks to do still, and a final buffing due once the paint decides to be totally totally dry in a year or so.



I used my funky wiring diagram - for some reason, the humbucker cuts out when "both" pickups are selected with the 3-way switch and the S1 is set to "parallel."





Pictures!

...nope - the humbucker is working in parallel, but something odd is happening in the mini-pots.

Perfection! Another notch in your belt! That color is pretty great too. Reminds me of a blue-r version of the AVRI Sherwood Green in some of the pics.

That's what I was aiming for!
There is Lake Placid Blue under all of that tinted lacquer.

It looks so good!

His entire MO was for working musicians to be able to keep their guitars working by using modular construction. I think you have proved his point a few times over.

Oh god yes now I'm ready for the weekend!!!

BRAVO!

Sir, well done

I think Leo’s actual philosophy was: “You don’t have to repair anything, just buy a new body” Obviously no one here thinks that applies, so awesome job

Incredible job.

I keep coming back to this thread, time and time again. I just love the way this guitar rose from the ashes, so to speak.

For my own entertainment i put together some of the progress shots in one image...i think it tells quite an impressive story!

Cheers!

12-step program.

It's nice to see things in the time-lapse version!

What an amazing project. Incredible workmanship, and it looks stunning.

Beautifully done

Okay - now the wiring works! I just needed to swap the wires at the thumbwheel pots like so -
