    Nearly done, just the truss rod cover and some good strings once the neck settles.
    I'd forgotten how good that Armstrong Motherbucker was( it was in a super strat before). The 3 way switch chooses between the front or back or both humbuckers. The rear most one on its own has a real Tele twang, the front one a little milder, both together is awesome. After much head scratching (Armstrong have their own colour codes and don't even tell you on their web site which wire is which) I also managed to get them both to split via push pulls. Either on its own is quite weak but together they give an almost chorus/acoustic-ey sound which is quite nice. maybe I have them out of phase, I don't know but I like it.
    She plays great, sounds great ( haven't done intonation yet), really happy with the result. I think it will push my single cut jnr off the "favourite" hook

    Nice one Deddy. How's that baby grand bridge? Love the look of those things.

    Seems fine, it is Alloy and I was worried that earth wire would be useless even though the inserts and posts are steel but it has no hum at all. Should be easy to get the intonation right as it is pretty close as is. I think a gold one would look classy on a white guitar or maybe I've been looking at ESP custom shop too long ;P
