Free junker guitar turned stereo monster!!!!

Fuuuuuuu gahhh!

SO. CLOSE. I wired it all up today, and somehow got the directions of the switches all fucked up. I think everything works except the stereo switch. If I plug it into two amps, it goes into both no matter what. BUT, I can toggle between either just the guitar pickups , the bass pickup, or all on at once. It's just that somehow the switches point different directions

Crap cell phone shot. The only thing I want to do to this guitar now is intonate it. I tuned it to Open A with a low A string.


I'll get some proper demos of the tones and such in the next couple days sometime.

This. . .


sounds like this. . . (except I ended up using virtual amps to avoid pedal clicks and the like in the background)

Less of a real demo and more just me fucking around with effects, slides, and a violin bow. But it sounds cool so, hey!
I forgot to EQ for bass frequencies, so watch out.

Cool project, I've been meaning to build something like this for awhile now. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Nice job dude, sounds great.

GOTTA LISTEN WHEN I GET HOME

I don't give a good example in this, because I get carried away so easily.... but the bass pickup (carvin h13B) sounds so fucking cool. I think I'd like to keep my eyes peeled for some more of them. I got it from SanfordandSonny a while back but hadn't been able to do anything with it until now. I can't find any anywhere else online yet, but I'd like something similar, I think....

Edit: I posted this in the noise section, but this is the same guitar, and there's a lot of bowing action going on in here. I recorded this one mono and not stereo, though. I think I play through a greater variety of pickup configurations, too.

Here's a demo, in mono, of how the pickups sound. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the bass pickup. I also recorded this in my apartment, so the room volume was low and you can hear the pedal clicks and strings and shit. The volume dynamics are a little crazy, too.

Edit: Oh yeah, what you are hearing is a Fender Hotrod Deville 410. The dirty tone is a Mini, the heavy tone is a Fulltone OCD, and the really heavy is the Mini into the OCD. The rest is a DD7 and the reverb from a Holy Stain pedal (because I never have spare dough to buy a more dedicated reberb... )

Double Edit: The only things I'd change on this guitar so far are the neck/headstock (just looks boring) and the bridge, because it seems just a little bit janky.
