Some questions about my Frankenguitar
coolcat replied to coolcat's topic in Solidbody Guitar and Bass Chat
A quick update to this 3 year old thread. I now know what a nut is! lol Also, I've built 3 Strats from different parts sources and haven't used a Bigsby on any of them. (I bought a semi-hollow Cort with a nice Bigsby on it.) I've decided to stick with the vintage trems on the Strats. Anyway, I've learned alot from reading books and especially from all you guys here at Project Guitar, so THANK YOU so much for all your posts! Peace, -Coolcat -

Mint BRAND NEW Fender Standard Stratocaster Body Loaded! JUST ADD A NECK! Great for that home custom guitar project! Why buy an aftermarket body when you can have an actual Fender? THIS IS THE REAL DEAL! I bought this on Memorial Day as a whole guitar and decided to sell it and keep the neck. (I have WAY too many guitars!) It's a beautiful color - I think Fender calls it "Agave Blue" It's a light blue metallic color. On eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=7420121982

Hey guys! Can you tell me what you think of the quality of the solid ash Strat replacement bodies made by Mighty Mite? They seem pretty nice and are really reasonably priced. Anyone have any experience with them? Thanks for your input! [G]

Hey - if you live in New York - check out Link Wray this Tuesday May 10th @ BBKings! He was one of the greatest surf-instro guitarists and was considered the "Godfather of Garage" and the inventor of the power chord!!! I heard his song "Rumble" (which can be heard in Pulp Fiction) was banned from radio in the 50's because it was considered sexually suggestive AND IT DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ANY LYRICS!!!!!

The guitar has been sold! Now I can start putting together my custom-made Tele... [G]

Check out this surf tune I recorded on my Mac: http://www.geocities.com/~spike67/coney_island.mp3 (Big file - 3.9 mbs) You'll hear the Dick Dale influence on the arpeggios... Let me know what you guys think of it!

I was cleaning the fingerboard on my rosewood neck with a sponge and I was overzealous. I took some of the finish off! Does anyone know what to use to restore a dark color to the rosewood? Shoe polish? Furniture stain? Nestles chocolate? [g]

Check out anything by Los Straitjackets. They are THE surf/instrumental band out there right now! And of course, Dick Dale, the King of surf guitar (check out his duet with SRV on "Pipeline"). Also pick up some CDs of Link Wray for some instrumentals that'll blow your socks off! As for equipment - anything that rocks with a whole lot of REVERB! I have a vintage '66 Teisco Del Rey "sharkfin" Japanese surf guitar, but my 60's Strat does it the best...

Wiring to Independent Switches / general wiring
coolcat replied to Rones's topic in Electronics Chat
That was very informative! Thanks for the chart! Can I ask you another question, however? Being a complete newbie to wiring, I've decided to make my life difficult by completely rewiring my Strat using three small SPST Slide switches from Radio shack. I want to be able to turn on/off each pickup independently. Your chart show this , but I'm not sure what to do with all those wires coming from the tone/volume pots that go to the 5-way switch right now. Can you explain the setup for a standard Strat Volume/Tone/Tone? Thanks for your input!!! [G] -
Help! I've attempted my first wiring job... Basically, here's the deal: I followed Fender Standard wiring schematics to a "T". The 5-way switch was already wired to the pots, so I was just swapping out the pu's. At first, the neck pu wouldn't work, so I switched t with the bridge, to see if it was faulty. Then it wouldn't work in the bridge. I tried another old pu and it worked. But, then I took it out and put the new ones in the bridge and middle (nothing in the neck). When it was like that , the switch was useless. they sounded exactly the same in ALL FIVE POSITIONS! Shouldn't I have gotten NO SOUND when I had the selector switched in the neck position? Now I'm wondering if my "faulty" pickup is faulty at all!? UGH!!!! Any clues? Thanks for your help! [G]
