  1. thank, its my first electric circuit on a guitar, i didnt knew it was that simple
  2. can someone post a diagram for that? the guitar is 1 hb, and 2 single coils, and i dont want to have a tone pot since i dont really use it
  3. im thinking on finishin my guitar with metalic silver. first primer, then a white coat and then silver paint? what about clear coats? can i use only rathel cans? or it wll end up looking like crap if i use only cans?
  4. thanks pierce, very well explained, i wont need a diagram , i;ll try to get one of those 6 way with two outputs to get the strato-like setting. and the idea to have an empty position to kill the pickups is a great idea, i think van halen did something like that but he removed one pick up? dont remenber, saw it on a video. i just want one tone and one volum pot so i think its easy. the ideas you posted are great but this is my first electric mod on a guitar, i'll try to keep it simple besides, i;ve seen those guitar with swtiches and pots for every pick up and indeed, they look like syntesizer.. ugly \ but it gave me an idea... take a big square pice of wood and make a guitar with all you said, it WILL look ugly but may come handy for home recording or just to try new stuff anyways,thanks for the info, i'll post the finish product when its done ps. what about the trim pot idea? will it work just fine?
  5. ok, here's what i want: -use the rotary switch intead of regular switch (5 position switch) -place it where the tone pot is so i dont have to drill another hole for it -use a trim pot inside the guitar for tone control, since i dont really use it it can be hidden inside the guitar i hope i make myself clear
  6. i was talking about rotary switches like garehanman said. does anyone have a diagram? i have no idea on how these switches work,i was thinking on just wiring it like a regular switch. im also thinkin in placing it where the tone pot is, cause y dont really use it, that means, no tone pot. would this ruin my guitar? maybe if i put a trimpot inside the cavity so i wont have to drill a hole for it...
  7. have anyone use those switches that look like regular pots? i was thinking on using one in a guitar with tree pickups but im new to this so i have no idea on how to do it i foun this but theres no diagram http://www.dinapoli-designs.com/guitar/guitar.html
  8. this is my first project; i bought a cheap acoustic guitar and i want to paint it black matte and the top with metallic red. i've already sand it, now what? paint it? or is there anythin else to do first?
