Let's see if this works

P7060095-1.jpg


No truss rod cover (is there a source for these?)
Bigsby B5 from my Gretsch (I put a B7 on the Gretsch)
Lace Sensor Gold pickups, neck and middle
Seymour Duncan PAF-something or other in the bridge. It's the one that just a wee bit hotter than the Gibson PAF
Modified the body somewhat, as you can see. I would like to take that bump down a little more, to make it ever-so-slightly strat shaped
Fender roller nut
No tone controls
6-way switch controlling the humbucker allowing me to get all 6 configurations of two-pickups
The neck and middle are each controlled by an on-off-on 3t2p switch that allows me to have them either off, or in-phase or out-of-phase with the other pickups
If you look closely, there is a big on/off toggle switch that turns the humbucker on and off. I got it at Walmart in the middle of the night, and promptly broke the plastic case. It still works, but I am waiting for it to fail.

As everyone here probably realizes, the tuners and the Guild roller bridge are excellent, so I never felt compelled to do anything with them.
