modifications

Question: Is it even possible to use a Strat style 5 position switch so it can be used as how a four position switch modification works. (i.e., Can anyone, out there in the tech-sphere, knows of a schematic wiring scheme that can wire up two 'Tex-Mex' single coil pups and end up with the three...

Hello all. I have been lurking and reading/learning here for a while and love this site as a premier resource for hands-on information. After over 20 years of playing and owning a handful of guitars I finally decided to build my first guitar and figured that it was time to finally add a tele to...

Howdy fine folks! I'm putting together a 3 pickup Jazzmaster partscaster and never being one for the conventional I've come up with this wiring diagram for a "phat" HSS setup. Versatility is the goal here - I legitimately play so many different styles so in putting together my "forever" guitar...

Maybe it's just me being cynical - but it seems like 90% of the Fender Tele's on the used guitar selling sites have some part or component that has been "Upgraded" - like a non-Fender neck, or swapped out pickup, or different saddles, etc. Whenever I've sold guitars in the past where I've...

Hello all. I've been circuit bending for a few years at this point and now want to try and step up my relationship with pedals and start making my own circuit starting with a simple fuzz that I'd like to modify. I have three criteria/ideas/questions: 1) I want to make a unique fuzz pedal. My...

Hi everyone, I bought a SX Furrian Ash MN about a year ago. It looks beautiful, but it had significant hum that made it unbearable to play. I should've returned it at the time, but I didn't. Now I want to do modifications to the electronics and aesthetic. Here's what I've done so far: I bought...

Hey guys, I got a good deal at modulus amplification UK...a princeton reverb chassis with faceplates included: (link removed) But what I did not realised is that it has the mounting dimensions for the deluxe PT and OT, which is a good thing...I guess :) So I could build a beefed up PR now...
