  1. crafty - what "output" are you refering to hooking up to the jack? the lines run out of the circuit to the switch. then the lines run back from the switch to the jack. so which two of the 3 or 4 outputs that run to the switch should actually be running to the jack?
  2. Hey - can anyone here help me out in my thread? So far it's unsolvable it seems. http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.ph...c=25882&hl= Need to know how to set the driver-only option up for a single bridge pickup with NO tone, NO volume, and NO pickup selector - allowing the harmonic portion of the circuit board to still work - (I know how to set it up so it would sustain properly, but the harmonic won't work) Thanks, I appreciate it.
  3. Spazzy - I'd like your assistance once again! (or anyone else) For the three-pickup selector diagram here: http://fernandesguitars.com/manuals/FSK101.pdf My setup has: NO volume NO tone NO pickup selector (it just has a bridge pickup) The answers you provided help partially, but include a 3-way selector, which I do not have. So can you simplify the diagram for me? Thanks a million man - fernandes has been no help!
  4. I have a question on mounting my pickups using a cover ring. The cover ring has holes for the two screws that go through it, through the pickup, and use the spring to raise/lower it. When I set the screw in the cover ring, the bottom of the screw does not even touch the wood of the guitar deep in that crevase (sp?) below the pickups hole for the screw Does the screw not go through the word, and just supposed to fit tightly into the pickup hole or what? if there's something wrong with my screws, where can I get new ones? thanks!
  5. I am applying water-based clear satin varnish (recommended by stewmac) to my guitar Should I do the neck, including the fretboard? and if so - do you recommend covering the frets with tape? any other tips thanks!
  6. spazz - so would you say this is a good solution http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics,_p...es.html#details as well as this? http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics,_p...ck.html#details Am I right that the first one listed doubles as a strap holder as well? And this one http://store.guitarfetish.com/chguenjapefo.html isn't a stereo jack is it?
  7. spazzy - i have the 101 setup, my own bride pickup (dimarzio) not the 401, i was wrong. diagram above is the right one, and is a 101
  8. the sustainer has an on/off switch for this - so I'm not sure why I'd need a switched jack?
  9. kill the volume going to my amp? my guitar runs through various fx and then the amp - i control volume on other equipment, never on my guitar. the bridge pickup is a dmmarzio hmbucker - believe it's a PAF pro
  10. In this file http://fernandesguitars.com/manuals/FSK101.pdf It is the diagram on page 3 that says "3 way pickup switch" Thanks!
  11. i have the 401 - the one that doesn't come with a regular pickup, and the driver that does not act as a pickup, and it has two switches.
  12. meaning a regular stereo jack is just fine? right? what do you mean by power on/off?
  13. The fernandes sustainer comes with a jack that has a VERY short thread section, making it hard for my routing plan. Can anyone here tell me that this jack is not unique, and any other jack is designed to handle the cables the same way? I can't tell anything unique, but want to check with the gurus here. Thanks a million guys!
  14. I need an electrical diagram for installing a fernandes sustainer in a system with just one bridge pickup, and NO volume or tone controls. By removing these from the provided diagram I still cannot figure it out. I'm willing to paypal 30 bucks at least, for a diagram you can post online or email to me. Thanks.
  15. southpa - thanks, let me be more specific. the neck is maple, the fingerboard maple, and the body alder. i want the would to look identical to how it is now - i just want to protect it, thats all! given that I have little tools - but can spend a littl emoney if needed, what is the simplest way to protect it without altering it? thanks!
