Well I got tired of messing with the circuit on this. I flipped the pickups over, and the "E" became the quiet string. I took those pups out, and found some other ones to use (they haven't arrived yet) I gutted all the rest of the wiring and ordered all new, I got CTS pots and a Switchcraft pup selector I don't know why the "Vol/Vol/Tone" wiring bugged me so much, but it did, so I'm going V/T/3-way. I've downloaded a bunch of wiring diagrams, so hopefully I'll get this one right the first time (or is it 9th by now
![Sarcastic :rolleyes:](https://bassoutpost.com/Smileys/default/sarcastic.gif)
) I did figure out the holes in the control panel aren't big enough for the pot shafts to pass thru, but I have a reamer I can open them up with. Or, a friend of my Dad is a retired metal worker, with a garage full of tools, maybe I can bring him a box '0' donuts and listen to them tell Army stories while getting my plate fixed...
I did the superglue/baking soda thing to the nut, and then filed it too deep again right away. Maybe I'll find somebody who can cut a new one for me locally (not many guitar places in rural WI though)
I learned my lesson, just do it right instead of cheaping out and having to re-do it multiple times!
