Drew's ES-5V first (ish) build

Cheers DarkMark, all done and tested. I used the StewMac diagram plus the additional earth wire that Simon described. Plugged into an amp and slid the pickup under the strings on my hofner, all working and a good range of tone.
Hardest bit is getting the solder to stick to the back of the pots!

I believe you had to drill wider holes to fit your standard sized pots. Did you use the linear taper pot for your tone control?
