Beautiful! The grain really pops with that pickguard and hardware. Are you thinking of using a gold bridge?

[dozymuppet]

I wasn’t, to be honest. But it’s worth considering.

I’ll actually be ditching the HSH idea for this one, as I made a mistake and didn’t drill for a blade switch, and I don’t want to do the Frankensteining required to make the wiring work. So I’ll be recutting the pick guard to hide the middle position, and I’ll save the pick guard and pickup for v2.

Not sure of the cost but you can look at the freeway toggles that give quite a few options to use a toggle as a 6 way. The site has a couple of variations of HSH in the 3 pickup two pot pdfs

I did see the freeway switches, but didn’t realise there was a toggle switch option.

Interesting. Not cheap though

Yeah is a bit up there at 65 odd bucks

But if it solves a problem and gives you what you want, it’s not excessive. Two normal Switchcraft toggle switches wouldn’t be a lot less.

Barring a string tree and wiring it up, this is essentially done. Initial set up was straightforward. Will let it settle and then tweak.









Love it. Lots of lessons and inspiration for future geometric projects.
