  1. Are these prices shipped? If not how much for pickguards to 01013
  2. I know this is a guitar forum and all, but I figured someone out there may be looking to sell one of these of know where I can get one. Im looking for a M-Audio O2. I'm trying to get in under a $100, becuase I just need it a few times. So any help would be great
  3. Would this be possible to do with the dreaded Rattle cans or do you need a whole paint gun system?
  4. Does anyone know how I would go about getting my guitar this color (Satin Black). I can't tell if this is a dye, stain, or a what. http://www.digitalplayroom.com/esp/images/ec2005_lg.jpg
  5. Ok since I'm a total moron at this stuff, I pulled the child out of me and tried my hand at MS Paint, now don't make fun of my art work . Im not sure how to wire the above diagram, so could someone explain it to me with my GREAT Paint work. Now I am pretty sure that this is probably super easy, but for some reason I just don't understand it Well, I don't think anyone is going to go out and buy one of these switches to help you out. So how about giving us a clue? When P2 is connected to terminal #1... which terminal is P1 connected to? I would assume terminal #7, but that would just be an assumption. Help us to help you. Im sorry I didnt know I need that, Yup your assumption is correct. OK so it goes like this P2 P1 1 7 2 8 3 9 4 10 5 11 6 12 Im hope this is helps any Sorry for be such newb at this stuff

  7. Yeah I figured out which where the 2 poles. As for knobs I have many many of them that are 1/4 in diameter, but I think Im going to cast my own skull knobs at my dads metal shop.
  8. COOL THANKS Now I just have 2 questions.......................Ok now these are total newbie questions so bare with me here I just went and picked up the switch at the ever shrinking PoopShack. Well it doesnt tell me what each prong is for, I know which are the pole prongs,but not sure about the other ones. Im not sure if it matters, Im leaning to toward it doesnt but Im not sure how to go about hooking it up. Now my next TOTAL NEWB QUESTION IS ....................um not even sure if I should as this, becuase it is such a stupid question (hide face so flames dont hit it) which way is it held, it is kind of shaped like a diamond and Im not sure if it goes side ways (sides pointing up and down) or straight (long sides up and down). I know these are TOTAL newb questions, but that tis what Iam If anyone has time and wants to help a fellow out a diagram would be nice
  9. Ok so 100k is pretty much going to sound like turd? I kinda figured, but I just wanted to make sure. I think Im going to stick with 250k, or 500k with a .22uf cap on it. If I were to use a 100k pot I want to use a smaller cap, such as a .01uf cap correct?
  10. Im not sure if this question has been asked before or not, but I did search quite a bit, but couldnt find anything. Can you mix different value pots together? I was thinking about putting 2 100k pots for my tones and a 500k or 250K for my volume. Im not sure how it would sound, it is just something that I was wondering about since I have terrible insomnia and my mind is moving a mile a minute Also while Im hear, how deep of a tone would it be if I used 3 100k pots on 3 single coil pickups?
  11. One of the reasons Im leaning toward this is because I just got done making a custom pickguard and Im looking for a different style switch instead of the standard fender 5 way lever switch because Im really not sure how to cut a 1/16 inch wide straight line without screwing up the pickguard. So that is why I starting looking into this route, but Im wondering if there is any issues with having a rotary style switch instead of the lever switch? Also how different would this 2 pole 6 position rotary switch be incomparison to a standard fender Strat 5 way switch? I know that on the rotary switch there is 6 position and the lever switch has 5, but what would be the difference other than things such as that
  12. Well I did manage to find this, Im not sure if it will be helpful to anyone?
  13. HMMMM I wonder if I can find a schematic somewhere with a similar switch HMM.
  14. Hey you don't by chance know the sku number for the 250k pot do you? It would be 271-xxxx Ha ha Radioshack, sell parts HA HA HA HA. No go there, they are getting rid of all their parts in the next 1-2 years. They are going the BIG BOX route. I started working there 6 years ago and I cant wait to get a new job When you say a good CTS pot, what do you mean by good? What is the differecnce from one pot to the next? Sorry if its a stupid question Im just not sure? Hmmm...I worked for Radio Shack about 9 years ago for a couple of months. First and only job I ever got fired from, too. I told my manager to stuff it because I'd been working for 15 hours straight on the monthly "inventory" and I was going home. Didn't care much because I was moving 500 miles away to college a couple weeks later. Anyway, I noticed that the Shack has installed new parts drawers, ala Lowes, for holding what parts they have left. I can't really imagine them going totally BigBox considering all I ever sold there was phones. I think the last real part I bought from them was a green LED about three years ago. But I like buying phones there. I won't ever buy another Sprint phone from a Sprint Store, but I'll buy one from RadioShack any day. AH gotta love the unorginized inventories that NEVER come out right
  15. Im just curious, could this switch be used instead of a 5-way selector switch for 3 single coil pickups? http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.js...tch&tab=summary
