I have more pics of the construction if anyone wants. Here goes:The full frontal:The electronics cavity:Switching:Back of the neck - wow:The specs:Unknown solid alder tele body with top creme bindingCruiser (by Crafter) thin flame maple neck w. rosewood boardHomemade treadplate pickguardPlanet Waves locking autotrim tuners (brilliant!)Stringsavers graphite saddlesPickups:System 1 - controlled by the first volume and 5 way switch:Dimarzio Steve Morse bridge humbuckerFender US strat singlecoils, middle reverse woundSystem 2 - controlled by second volume (thereby giving possibility of blending it with any p.u.positionDimarzio MiniBuckerSeries/parallel switch for the minibuckerSplitcoil switch for the Steve MorseBartolini Mid Boost circuit"Snooze" (the little black switch behind the volumes) - a momentary killswitchThe last "volume" knobs function is undecided as ofnow.I am considering throwing a GK3 Roland synth pickup on it, and, perhaps more useful, a Fernandessinglecoil sustainer inthe neck.Anyway, thanks for your time, hope you enjoy it. :-)
