    Alternative to volume/tone/tone/5 way switch

    I saw a schematic for this very thing.  If you didn't want a pickup on, you just turn it off. http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/sw1.php Here he has it for in phase/off/out of phase, but at the end he says that he didn't find that very useful, so he changed it to what you describe.

    I'm really diggin' this neck!

    I've never tried a neck made of it, but the neck I'm making now has a bloodwood fingerboard and it is smooth like glass when you get it sanded right!  And it is stunning to look at.  I'm sure it would be a joy to play on. Not that any of that helps with the temptation... :toothy11:

    Exactly.  NonsenseTele Asked IF I used a mounting ring and hardtail, would it cover it.

    Mahogany Telecaster body

    From looking at it, I think a mounting ring should cover the little extra.  If any shows through, its so busy looking right there that the ring, the bridge and the pickup would distract anyone from seeing it unless they looked really close.  I'm still going to use the tele bridge, just because...

    so what do you guys think about this?

    The first two remind me of the Necronomicon from Evil Dead.  The third...no comment.

    The effects of _______ on tone

    This guy's sitehttp://www.liutaiomottola.com/ has a bunch of interesting stuff about the science of guitar building.  And most of it confirms what we have been saying, that most of it doesn't make very much difference in the sound of a guitar.  (Especially electric.)  +10 on Practice more and...
