Sure I'll snag a better pic when I'm home but a brief explanation I can do now.

Body Wise:
Its cut out of a slap of purpleheart which is a stunning colour as you can see, the only finish is clear poly.
I cut the shape then stood it up on its side and cut the top 1/4" or so off and set it aside.
Got my router and chambered the body similar to how it is in this photo. (no f-hole though)

Glued the top back on and routed out the rest.

Electronics Wise:
Single seymour-duncan humbucker up near the neck.
Has a ordinary volume knob but instead of a tone knob its wired up so 1 coil is always in the signal and I can blend the second in how ever much I want.

Generally speaking, it's this...



...or this...



...into this...



...and then into this...

whoa that's a brilliant idea!


I have my baritone wired up a similar way but it's between bridge and neck p90s.

Bookmarked. Good idea, as I have always wanted single coil sounds, but could never convince myself that a straight coil split is what I wanted. That's pretty cool.

Oh man, I think I'm going to have to try that out as well

"Generally speaking..."

... so what's the gear when you're NOT speaking generally?!

I just meant that I have other stuff lying around; not in the signal chain at the moment. And I've a couple guitars and amps sitting in storage back in the US... that I miss a whole lot.

No worries, mate, I was just messing about and saying how awesome your gear is.

Sardinista, that's stunning. Now mod the shit out of everything!

so I'm replacing my V4B reissue with a HD130.

(if anyone in australia wants to buy a V4B reissue...)

Mini-rig o' doom. The blue pedal is a modded Tone Machine -> Pharaoh made by ILF: LaoWiz. Shit rules.
I could probably chuck the Mini & KKF out of this set up and still be madly in love with it.

That sunn...

That Laowiz!....

Got the sunn for super cheap & I've been loving it.
Way better than that crappy Ampeg SS head I used to have.

It's taken me a while to fall for the LaoWiz beast but god damn does it rule. Even on low gain the Tone Machine screams and the separate tone controls for the octave/non-octave portions of the circuit was such a good idea, he is such a boss. I love love love the sound of the octave with my volume knob rolled back. Synthy & notched, but tame. Mmph.

& I was having trouble finding the right setting on the Pharaoh, but now I just have everything cranked on the germanium setting and its blowing my mind.
Gonna throw the Mini at the very beginning of the chain and call it a day.
