    Note that the 3-pickup SGs will need extra pots and or switches to work properly, as they come with a standard 2-pickup wiring kit (no idea why). There are 2 configuration options, three volumes one tone (which needs at least one new audio taper pot) but you can use the standard kit switch, or two volume two tone (as per the original 3-pup SG) but you need a special configuration Switchcraft lever switch to do that. But if you are fitting better pickups, then I'd replace the kit electrics anyway. Plenty of room in the SG control cavity for full-sized pots.

    Thanks for the heads up. I've got plenty of time to think about that and get replacements/upgrades. Already got two other builds on the go and I just don't have the room to try doing three at a time.
