Thanks for the info guys I will sure be looking into the wiring guides when I start in on that aspect of the build. I had it in my mind to finish the guitar flat black in the style of the Gretssh Tim Armstrong, anyone have any tips on getting this look? I did try and upload some pictures but wasn't able to for some reason, I'll try and get some input from one of my more computer literate friends to see how to do that. As for the torture of the GR-1SF, I just spent some quality time trying to tape off the binding on one F-hole, how do they do that at the factory it must be a trade secret!!!??!!
