Thanks wokkaboy. I actually took a punt last night & mounted the pots on the cardboard as shown in the old video. I measured the distances for each of the holes & have soldered all of the pots with extra length on the wires so that I will have enough wiggle room to get them through the F holes. I will do as you suggest & try the tubing idea plus use cable ties to keep them in some sort of order ONCE I have tested the system out before attempting to fit the pots. Thanks again for your suggestions & your encouragement. At the moment I have begun to apply the clear coats to the body & neck so once that is done I can move onto the next phase. I notice that these guitars have no pre amp. I have 2 x 12 string guitars (Takamine & a small Ashton) which both have pre amps installed. I have no experience of how to test the circuits on the ES-1G once I have wired it up but I noticed on the old video that Adam gave the pick ups a light tap after he finished wiring them up & I am assuming that he had them plugged into his amplifier?
