Place it over the shafts of the pots and you can easily pull them into place again. TV Jones sell a kit with the tubing for rewiring guitars without an access plate; it also includes a tool for attaching to the jack socket.

@@edwinstovall3334 The truth is that the electronics in an electric guitar (and most amps) are SHOCKINGLY low tech. I think people get in their minds that "technology is daunting" and difficult but in the case of changing a pickup or a capacitor--there is really NOT that much to it. A wire and a dot of solder. Most of these parts initially (back in the 50s) were made from parts intended for other industries. Telephones, record players, cars, radios. Very low tech.

I bought a floor model PRS from Sweetwater at an incredible discount. It was discounted because of a few tiny dings on the binding that looked somewhat noticeable in the pictures but nothing that made it undesirable in any way. When it got to my house, I couldn't find the dings at all. In regular lighting they just don't even show up. Those deals are amazing.when you can find them. Open box or whatever.

I know what you mean even though my first SG was a cheap knock off I still have a love for them. I spent a lot of time tweaking that guitar to get it where it was decently playable. Adversity when I saw th61 reissue you had I decided to buy it. When I saw they Pelham blue model you had on your sight although it looked gray on my end. I was pleasantly surprised. I've seen things painted that color or a shade of that color and didnt like it . I didnt know how good it looked in person. I've been picking on it since the day it was delivered. I'm jealous though of that 335. I have a red dot pro that is all red . But that one you have looks awsome. I think they should've done the whole guitar where the black is on the guitar it looks like the red is bleeding through or peeking through as you said about the area on the headstock. That guitar you reviewed is the kind of guitar you'll want to roll your knobs back a little and use a floor volume gain pedal.

My first e guitar was a ES-335 too Austin. My parents bought that and a Fender Twin custom having Altec Lancing speakers. After that, 1 real Tellicaster. After them, I built my stuff and never went back. I kept making my own electric guitars better then their stuff. I even made speaker cabinets better-suited for my sound systems. Now I do have some PA amps rated at 350, 750 and a 1,000 watts of amplifier madness. I still might still want my 750 for the recording studio I built then remodeled or decided to change a board or mixer. Equipment does get old. I'm moving my prototype Telli and changing it's look to something more tasteful and something new for a 5-string bass using a 32" inch scale instead of 34" like Fender's P-bass. I share pictures of them in the raw state, I'm still carving my neck stock. The bodies are just on the carpet. That's what I like doing. That guitar, your new red 335 was supposed to work best with the original Jenson speakers. Not Altec's, but JBL's D123e built in the 70s then the 2130 JBL had made a loud improvements that I liked the best with a small 50 watt head using EL-34s and the ES-335 is gone. But I'm making a ES-175 Floraltine horn with Flowtron pickups, plus a Bigsby Bar all in brass and Angerburst colors, my first of maybe smaller? I just need to think when my first 10 are done?

That is beautiful, If I could have a signature model it would be this ES, with the 345 split inlays with one on the first fret, also. Tone pro's brass roller bridge, And I know, boo hiss, Emg Zakk Wilde 81 and 85's. With the 24 volt mod. I have a 64 set up like that and it is amazing. The guitar howls, screams and has the most crystal clear clean tones. I have always wished that i could have heard Roy Clark, play through a set of EMG's and a Mark lV. To swap the pick-ups, Tie a string around the shaft of the pot, then pull it through, swap and pull it back,it's easy. Mason line works well.

Nice of them to make it right on the pickups (again), I wonder if there was a miscommunication between the people doing the demos/mods and the people posting them on Reverb or their website. StewMac sells a tool for putting pots and what not back into these f-hole guitars, or just tie fishing line around the pots before you take them out, the volume pots don’t look that bad on this, the tone controls and the jack though… I once had to re-wire a Japanese (Lyle brand?) hollow 335 shaped bass where the jack was in the side… that was a difficult job since nothing reached that far.

Something I don't get. I get that the pickup readings are Ohms which are measures of resistance. Why do higher readings mean hotter pickups? Seems like it would be the other way around.

@carnacthemagnificent2498 2 жыл бұрын

The theory is that more wire = more turns = hotter, but also more wire = more resistance since resistance is a function of length. So basically "more resistance = more turns = hotter". In truth there are other factors like magnet and bobbin geometry but it's the quick and dirty 'this should be hotter' test. Usually it works.
