Warmoth La Cabronita - A Photo Essay.

[AGWAN]

I want to use the hipshot 175 for a telecaster. I hope I don't need that pocket depth to change.

It seems so much taller in the saddles then the Tele Humbucker bridge to begin with.

Part 6 :

Here is the finished product :-

After I wired up, the neck TV Jones and bridge Gretsch Filterton were out-of-phase with each other.  I guess they are not similar as far as wire colour codes are concerned.  I had to re-wire them to be in phase and sounded pretty good together.  The volume pot can be pulled to add a .020mf cap to the circuit to cut a little bit of high end.

Overall, I am happy with the whole project.  Straight forward and simple. Very rewarding.
