Its not all the way done but this is what I have so far.
Still waiting on the neck (like a kid waiting for Christmas)
Basswood one piece body
Hip shot bridge
EMG 81 bridge / 60 neck
Dunlop Strap locks
Mater tone (push pull has a battery disconnect so I can leave my wireless plugged in while its on the stand)
Master Volume
Momentary kill switch button
The toggle switch functions from left to right are:
1) 9 volt/18 volt switch
I like the added fidelity, head room and clarity of the 18v system but on some settings I like the early break up and crunch of the EMGs @ 9v
2) Low Cut / treble boost
This is a simple high pass filter made from a Resistor and a capacitor and using a mini boost circuit for the make up gain. I call it the "mud be gone" switch. When Soloing and using the neck pick up it gives you a clear cut through lead tone to die for. Super fast and never muddy but still warm like a neck pick up should be.
3) Gain boost bypass/+6 db
4) Phase Inverter
5) Kill switch selector
one setting the guitar is always on till you hit the button then it cuts out, the other the guitar is always off and only lets sound out the jack when you hit the button.
The finish is simple
One coat of sealer
Several coats of nitro cellulose
Done
The pic is camera phone quality but I will post some more when I get it done.
The neck is a warmoth headstock
24 fret ebony finger board on maple
full scalloped no inlays
The inlays will be painted on the whole fret with white paint.
As in the whole 3rd, 5th, 7th fret etc etc will be solid white and match the pick ups white on black theme
