    HI all,
    I haven't done a build diary for a while and thought this new baby was well worthy. Took delivery today and did a mock build and it all fit together quite well. The only small glitch was the pup routes for the 6 string side were a bit narrow, but this won't be an issue to make a bit wider.
    Might start some sanding to see how the basswood body shows up, grain looks pretty good.
    Am planning to finish this baby (well its not that small !) In aramanthine and have my fingers crossed DB gets a delivery on Friday.
    PLanning a traditional shape for both headstocks.
    Ok time for some sanding !

    Looks like you'll need it in 50L with the SG and IB5!

    Hey Wokka, that looks great. I'm not really familiar with the Gibson Double Neck, but something I noticed when taking the photos, there were three 3 way switches (and I could only see one switch hole). Anyone know what that's all about?
    Cheers,

    Adam

    Hi Adam,
    Yes the other 2 switches go on the scratchplate between pickups and they must control which neck is active. I'm yet to find a wiring diagram but think this is going to take several hours to solder up correctly.
    With the correct diagram should be straight forward

    Ahh, ok, I was wondering how they switch between the 6 and 12. When you find a wiring diagram, please flick me a copy and I'll use it to draft a PBG version.

    Cheers,

    Adam

    Cheers DB I'll check out the site tomoz and no worries Adam when I find a good wiring diagram I'll email it through.
    Finding out there's a bit more sanding to do than normal, but have fallen in love with this axe already !
