Haha cheers Wokka, definitely hard doing it neatly to fit in the cavity! Haven't tested yet, will hopefully temporarily hook up some pickups and do a tap test tomorrow! I hope it all goes well because I do not want to rip up that wiring and redo anything, it is just so complex!
I take no responsibility... unless it works.
Scott.
Good job Pest neat wiring. I'm sure it will fire up ok!

Cheers Ponch, after checking multiple times on each joint, it should fire up nicely, glad I spotted a missing wire today and not when I go to plug it in for the first time! And it's neat thanks to a pair of zip ties holding the longer wires together and then anchored down to the tone pot wires otherwise it would be much more difficult fitting it all in the cavity!
Cheers Stan I hope it does rock when plugged in!
Update time for today! So I did some pickup surgery today, found that the ground on the up had ripped clean and was a pain to get back on so I removed the black wire completely and then got the internals from a wire which I turned into a thicker wire with a rope like fashion which was bridged to the ground plate from the pickup coil then reattached the black wire. Pics up tomorrow.
Also applied the third and final coat of oil. Now will wait for a few weeks to fully cure then hit it with the sealer and then top coats. Will I still need the sealer or could I actually just get away with the spray top coats?
Three coats down, two to go!
looking good Pest, getting a yellow colour
