There is an article in Guitar player magazine on this subject good & informative. I was in Borders and read it a few weeks back. It is the issue with the Beatles on it because of the Vox amp cover article. Bootlegger.

Guitlouie: Great information, printed out a copy to put in my schematic book. Thanks. Bootlegger.

Hey Beast, Where have you been? I was just thinking to myself I haven't seen any postings from Superbeast520 and you pop up. I'm currently working on two strat types, one black korina flame (Warmoth) rear mount with humbuckers and a 5 way blade switch, vintage wilke trem, rockfield swc pickups...

TroubleTrem, As I mentioned before seeing your Black Korina beauty got me jonesing for one. The original one I wanted was item#2074 but when I was ready some one beat me to the trigger. If I could have turned my foot 90 degrees I would have kicked myself in the ass. Dan sent me an email and...

Hey, TroubledTrem, I pulled the trigger and ordered my Korina body off the show case today It was item#S2112 The flamed top Korina on Korina back. It is being routed for H-X-H and a vintage trem. Bootlegger.

You can also find that article on www.edenhaus.co. It is a reprint from a vintage guitar magazine article and has the new dupont number chart so you can buy the same  vintage color paint. There is also an article on  Gibson vintage paint on the edenhause website.

On the post bushing before you put the post in the body.  There is (should always be) a hole from you rear body cavity to the post bushing hole.  You can solder it to the post bushing before you press your bushing in.  Run your ground wire through the body cavity and through the bushing hole...

epiphoneSGman, That would be a four pot set up for what you describe that you wanted (on the guitar electronics website). But what most persons who have responded to you are concerned about is possibly "fubaring" your guitar. One thing you have to consider is do you have enough control cavity...

Good tip SkuttleFunk but a day late I just picked up a Craftsman 2/3 hp, 5 speed drill press with lazer yesterday for $89.00 (less taxes) at Sears. Good for what I do and good information also. Keep em! coming.

Dude, four pots on a LP are two volumes and two tone pots, each set controls one pick up, the "REAL" toggle switch allows you to play when down the bridge pickup, when up the neck pick up and when in between both pickups together.  I don't know what the fake toggle switches do.

I cut a notch in a Jim Dunlop .73 nylon pick (thumb end) square the size of the flats on the nut (like a box wrench) and slide it on before I tighten my set screw. It gives me enough clearence for the dome nobs to turn freely. Bootlegger.

I picked up some 8-32 zinc inserts from Rockler (pt# 33209, 8 pieces to a bag) for $ 2.89 per bag.  Scuttle Funk: They do not have 10-24 inserts at the Rockler I went to. There is a bolt house not far away from me they are open 1/2 day on saturdays. When I get a chance I will check and see if...
