Time for an overdue update. Sadly no one is willing to pay me to build guitar kits yet so my real job impedes progress. Anyways I thought it was time to wire the pickguard (or scratchplate for my UK friends). I started by throwing my pickups and a pre-wired strat electronics into the pickguard, but had some little modifications to make. I decided to add in the Guitarfetish mid-boost circuit to see how well it could replicate the Clapton signature strat tones.

This was my starting point.

And this was where I ended up with the mid-boost.

Hopefully if this long and dreary Canadian winter ends I can get back to putting a final coat of paint on the body so I can put it all together. I guess it's just more motivation to set up an indoor paint booth.
