  1. okay the chips are jrc 062d 3011g and tl031c and theres a third one in there but i can't read it cause it's covered,but when i remove the switches i should be able to find out,i'll be sure to take nice big close ups of the circuit, i'm still waiting on some parts like the bridge etc...
  2. cool thanks for the replies guys, firstly i already have the guitar,and i got the sustainer kit for a bargain price 125 shipped so i couldn't pass it up,even though i originally thought the sustainiac would be much easier to install (i'm still waiting for the kit,should be in the post tomorrow) i know that i can't use the neck pup with the sustainer,thats cool it's just i don't like most single sized humbuckers,though i haven't tried any in the neck position the flying leads thing looks like a good solution to my problem of the switches location,i don't really like how loads of fernandes guitars have them sticking out behind the bridge it looks terrible,and awkward to reach maybe the jag switching will work so? i think they look great i'm guessing that one is triple throw,one double? i'll be sure to check out that GP,but now that y'all know i don't have the sustainiac option,and i gotta go fernandes have ya any more suggestions? maybe i'll make a kind of net diary of the build??
  3. hi guys,first post here... i tried to use the search function to find what i needed but didn't get very far... basically i'm building a fsk401 kit into a 72 tele custom type guitar i'm using a full sized bridge bucker and i've had a pickguard made that's got a place for the single coil driver as close to the neck heel as possible,and then routed for a full sized bucker about 5 mil apart from the sustainer driver. i've also routed for a jag style 3 switch control plate instead of the standard 3 way toggle on the lower horn,(not sure how i'll wire this,i doubt the jag switches would work so i was thinking i might modify the idea and have a plate made to hold the two sustainer mini switches and a mini 3 way toggle for pickup selection) so my big worry is using the neck bucker so close to the driver coil,i've heard if i use a covered one i'll get problems right now i'm thinking it'll be a seymour '59 or jazz model,should i use open coil? if i do use an open coil neck bucker can i use a chrome p/up ring surround without hassle? can i use a seymour instead of the fernandes bridge bucker? anything else i should consider? thanks guys
