This was the previous mod. Of course I wanted more modifications, here they are 🙂
First, a blue neck on a red body was fun for a moment but at the end I stripped the blue paint off
<to add the pic of the back>
Then, I wanted to add a neck pickup, having only one bridge pickup is too limiting for me – I’m playing maybe 90% of the time with a neck pickup and adding one would make this guitar more useful for me.
First the template:
Some router work later:
Also, new electronics
And in the end, this is the result.
With or without the pickguard:
Compared to the “before”:
Hi, am about to install neck pickup, there’s not much of information there. Where did you found template measure (if), and what kind of electronics you were using, and where is best place to buy one? Cheers.
Hi – I just copied the bridge cavity and made the template by myself out of plywood
The electronics is very simple – the volume and the tone pots are still the same as before, I just added a mini switch for pickup selection.
It’s an “on-on-on” mini switch, you can fine one at many places. Mines are from Mouser but this isn’t the only place.
