robbieg Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Yeah i've done lots of wood working and all and I finished my first FROM scratch electric guitar (FLYING V) that i need to find the electronics for. I was given a box of 2 humbuckers, some screws, etc. I need a list of the stuff that I need to buy to get this guitar up and ready. (for example, the OUTPUT JACK) Can anyone give me a list, or another link that would answer my question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 For the electronics, if you have pickups and pickup screws, the rest that comes to mind is: soldering iron wire stripplers that electricians tape stuff wire solder (although there is a certain type recommended, cant remember what it is) pots (500K recommended for humbucker, 2 of them one volume and one tone usually) 5 or 3 way selector switch for selecting the pickups nuts and washers knobs for the pots screws for the pickup switch (if its a 5 way, if 3 way then i think its just nuts and washers again) output jack socket output jack plate with screws pickguard of rear cavity cover conductive paint or foil to shield the cavity areas i think thats most things you'll need, some other people may be able to suggest more things. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
