Love Junji Ito.

Pictures. I got the pots, pickups, bridge, jack, and toggle mounted. I had to plug the neck holes because the Kramer holes didn't match up right. No biggie.

This is shaping up to be such a cool guitar. Can't wait to see it finished.
And that plate is amazing. I have a very strong memory of seeing something in a music magazine in the very early 2000s (I must have been 12-13) about the Uzumaki live-action film which had several pictures, one of which was of the person wrapped around the wheel of a car. Seared into my brain .

What type of toggle are you using; how are you turning on Mrs. Howell?

Thanks! It seemed to fit the look. I think his art style is very interesting. The lines on the body make me think of Jack Skellington from Nightmare Before Christmas. LOL

Mrs. Howell is controlled by the third volume pot and makes her on in any pickup selected position.

I got the wiring mostly done. I need the correct three way toggle to come in. I ordered a "L" one and it doesn't sit right. I need a short one to fit this cavity. Three volumes setup so I can have the middle added in to the normal three way options or turned off by turning the volume all the way down. It gives you every possible combination including middle only. One master tone.

Got the Kramer neck added on. I think these look so funny on a SG shaped body, but in a cool way. Different.

New Grover tuners.

I got a new neck for this one so it would intonate correctly. I got the tuners swapped and the neck installed. Different vibe with the maple fretboard, but I dig it.

Oh by the way, the wiring makes it really cool. If I put the middle pickup in, it makes stratish sounds with neck middle and bridge middle. Middle alone is pretty good also. It is also cool to be able to just have the middle pickup alone. Really good options.

This thing is so dope.

[HNB]

Thanks! My daughter really ended up liking how it looks with the new neck. She has seen a lot of my projects and usually isn't impressed, so that is a good compliment for this one as well.

I don't know how I missed this one, but I love it!!

For the middle pickup, is the volume pot output wired directly to the output jack, or somewhere else?

[HNB]

Thanks!! The middle pickup is wired to the tone pot. This is the diagram I used.
