Muzz Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Great carve and paint, thumbs up on this one although I can't see any leso ( slang for Les Paul) or tele in it, it must have highly evolved, what's on the headstock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7even X² Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Awesome! The paint choice was perfect for it. It has me now thinking outside the box for my next build. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Foreigner Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 You don't really buy into that whole 'less is more' ethos, do you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 I hadn't noticed the matching fret markers before now or how nicely the headstock complements the body shape. Nicely done. This has a fascinating combination of retro looks juxtapositioned with never seen before features. Very cool. I can almost hear that different drummer you're dancin' to. What do all those controls do? SR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Our Souls inc. Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 ......... it must have highly evolved, what's on the headstock? Thanks man - thats my initials done in rhinestones. Blingy. ...... the complicated looking controls are simply two systems , one for the bridge/neck , and one for the middle hunk o 'pup. Just a single V/T , a switch for each "system" and then a switch to choose between the two setups. To siplify : top row - output jack , T/ V ( bridge/neck system ) the three way switch chooses one 'system' or the other or both then a T/V for the middle pup , a 3 way switch for the bridge/neck pups , and then a 5 way for the middle pups. I have a green cap on the 'bucker/neck tone pot and an orange cap on the 3 sc's . 250k pot for the SC's , 500k for the others. to clarify this ones purpose in life - Its a studio mule. I don't play live anymore so its not like I'll be driving it like a stickshift during a song , just between them. ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
