how big is the volume pot cavity Nicko ? It may only be small, enough for one pot ?
I forgot the stock pups won't have 4 wires to split so Weirdy can help you turn it into a splittable bucker.
Yeah I'd do that just split the neck pup if you don't split the bridge pup

Wow! that should come out fantastic. 7 strings and a hardtail. At least that top isn't spoiled but a gigantic Floyd Rose crater.

If you're thinking of adding a mini toggle switch, a DPDT On/On/On could be set up to select which pup is split (Bridge/Both/Neck) and then use a Push/Pull volume pot to actually turn the selected split on/off.

Had to post this... knocked the nut out today to get a look at it and get DB some measurements (cheers mate)
The height of the nut..
10mm!
In addition to this the string slots were all 1mm wide and deep.
Certainly not wide enough to djent.. or play anything besides floss
gee a 10mm high nut would just about knock you in the head while playing. Thought it looked high in the pics.
Don't think it has to be that high unless you want a super high action.
Is there a rake angle on the neck Nicko ? Edit, I saw its got holes for a tune o matic bridge

Unfortunately not wokks. Not sure whether to add a shim to the neck heel or to create an angle in the pocket.
