    No Tone Pot?

    Does anyone here want to build a wiring harness for me if I pay them? The setup would be as follows: 2 Lindy Fralin "Unbuckers" Concentric Volume Pot Concentric Tone Pot 3-Way Switch 2 Mini Toggles (for Coil Splitting each pickup) I know how to solder, but I can't seem to find a wiring...

    No Tone Pot?

    With the dark color of that Zebrawood, I had thought about ebony knobs, but I think they'll get lost in the mix. The maple is bright enough that they will contrast, and it should match decently with the cream colored humbucker trim rings. The neck is a Warmoth shape in solid Wenge with a...

    No Tone Pot?

    That's what I'll end up doing. Drilling in very small increments and continuing to see if the threaded portion of the pot has enough thread for the nut to hold on. I found some really cool concentric pot knobs that should look good on it...

    No Tone Pot?

    I spoke with Spike at Warmoth. He told me that the CTS concentric pots will fit in the tone position of the PRS style controls on my VIP body, but they won't fit in the volume position unless some material is removed from the backside. It looks like that drill bit you referenced Cagey is...

    This website barely functions in Safari

    Strange, doesn't work for me in Safari, Chome, or Firefox either. Looks like there are a number of errors in the JavaScript console too.

    No Tone Pot?

    I don't believe they make a long shaft concentric pot... at least I can't seem to find one?

    No Tone Pot?

    Ahhh, that picture explained it all. Now I totally get it. In that case, maybe I'll go that route. That would allow me to have two volumes in one pot location. Man...  I didn't even know these things existed. So here's the next question... Any idea which concentric pot I need for the VIP body...

    No Tone Pot?

    I'm a bit confused as to how the concentric pots work, for instance, this one: http://www.warmoth.com/Concentric-Pot-500k-By-CTS-P720.aspx I assume it's push / pull, and in one position it would be the neck pickup volume, and in another position it would be the bridge pickup volume. Okay...

    Advice on adding a third pot to PRS style controls

    I purchased this Warmoth showcase body the other day and I'm hoping someone can give me some advice here. I plan to install some Seymour Duncan "Greenies" humbuckers in it. However, in order to get the most out of these pickups, I really need two volume pots, one for each pickup. The issue of...

    No Tone Pot?

    I purchased this Warmoth VIP body for my build. The issue is that it only has room for 2 pots and a three-way selector switch. My problem is that I would strongly prefer to have a volume pot for each pickup, as I always use the volume, but hardly ever use the tone. I have however heard that...

    Velocity Guitar Case

    Well, that's not as bad as I was expecting for a case (I was expecting $300 or so), so I may just have to grab one of those in that case.
