hey, I`ve done it... completed my first electric wiring job. Other than wiring the switch backwards the first time, it was pretty easy to do, and It came out a success.

I am very pleased with the guitar, the "Golden Age" humbuckers from stew-mac really do Oooooze vintage tone. I give them two [:Y:] [:Y:] thumbs up.

Now where did i put my bass players phone number?

Matt
