How It All Started
I bought this vintage beast from a bud at work…then the bug bit me….
Stay tuned for more
I didn’t appreciate the stock cheap single coils, so I swapped in Seymour Duncan single space hum buckers for a more of what I wanted, and also wired in a Free-way5/10 way switch which does all crazy things with pickups. 500k push/pull pots to split for awesome single coil noise and same the the tone pots, 47k orange drop caps on both tone pots. Lots of fun, sounds like a Hot Rod with strings…
The full range hum bucker pickups didn’t sound the best..so I started with an OEM pickgaurd, installed Wilkinson M Series Humbuckers with Alinaco 5 magnets..500k push/pull pots for splitting to single coils, and for 22uf and 47uf caps on the tone dial. this whole setup really brought out the voice in this limited edition..
And then the real fun started…
Thanks to Josh Scott and Company at JHS for the inspiration…

Ive now done multiple styles and difficulties, some were tested by a buddy and first thing he did that night was order two for himself, which i welded up gladly….those now rock on his main board.
