  1. Thanks. I've tried several different wiring schemes for pcb switches, but I end up with extra wires floating around or missing sound on random switch positions. I think that in the end it would probably be better/easier to just buy whatever kind of switch that is used in the seymour diagram. I think it's one of these, but I'm not to sure. Any suggestions as to which type of switch I should get?
  2. Hey guys, I'm having some trouble with wiring a new guitar I'm building. The wiring diagram I used is this, as I'm using GFS lil killer pickups and they use the same color scheme as the seymour pickups. My problem is that only the middle three positions of the 5-way pcb switch are working. I get nothing on the outside positions, yet the everything seems to work correctly in the middle 3. I'm convinced that there's something wrong with the wiring on the switch, but seeing as all I know how to do is solder correctly I can't troubleshoot a wiring diagram on my own. I would really appreciate some help, as I'm pretty much utterly and completely lost. Thanks.
  3. The neck is just there for reference. I'm going to use a carvin neck, since I am terrified of actually building a neck from the ground up by myself. There's a bunch of inconsistencies and such in the mock-up that I was just too lazy to fix. So the meat of what I need to do is etc... * Stain the body * Mask design * Apply black lacquer * Apply clearcoat. etc... That's not too bad. Plus I've got all the time in the world.
  4. Hey guys, this is my first post. I've recently decided to give building a guitar a try, and I have a freshly glued blank outside waiting for a good routing. I'm pretty much ready to go, but the problem is I have no idea what to do to get the finish that I want. The finish would be similar to this. This is somewhat rough mock-up of what my guitar will hopefully look like. I'm guessing I'll need to use a stain or some lacquers or something. I'm pretty much in the dark here when it comes to wood finishing and would really appreciate some help.
