Nicely done Zandit, it looks good.
Here's the video demos

Nice. Any chance of some clean tones though?
Ask and ye shall receive!!

Listening to it played back it sounds out of tune, but please believe me that I tuned it just before. Considering the strings have only been on there for a few days, they are holding their tune rather well.
Also, I screwed up when calling out the different settings on the hotstack. It should have been Parallel/split/series. I should read things before putting it out on the interwebs!
Sounds great Daniel. Neck and middle have similar tones whilst the humbucker has that darker edge to it.
Was only playing the video on low volume and wondered if live there was much discernible difference on the middle hot stack when switching between the settings? May have to watch it again later with headphones on so I can really crank things up.
Very nice Daniel, my thoughts pretty much reflect what Waz said.
I think Parallel and Split, there is negligible differences, certainly at low volumes, but in series, the volume is slightly stronger.
BTW Waz, I'll lower the Humbucker pup as you suggested in the other thread. That certainly is noticeably louder than all of the others!
Good decent clean tones, thanks for that!
I finally got this build into the hands of my mate Mick who is a top guitarist and superb pedal steel player. Loving some of these clean bluesy and country sounds!

Gotta be happy with how this one turned out. Some quite useful sounds on this latest demo.
Cheers, Waz
They're only useful if you know what you are doing Waz!!Quote:

awesome result, you've resurrected a ripper, well done
Thanks Stan!
Considering the last time I plugged it in I had an issue with the volume pot cutting in and out, Mick just grabbed it and played the hell out of it(I only recorded this 3min bit) and never had an issue. He loved the rather loud humbucker PU sound, and suggested raising the other PU's to compensate for their lack of volume to help balance it out. He also suggested shaving a fraction off the nut to get the height right at the first fret. Playing open chords was pulling the D and G strings slightly sharp.
One day I'll get around to that!
Great stuff Z, looks like he was having fun with the switches.
Haha, yeah he was flipping them all over the place, just looking for different combos.
Put it this way, he said to me personally it was a great sounding guitar. After I left could well be another story altogether!!! :p
