The GPR order arrived today

... but I missed the postman so I'll have to go at the post office on Monday..
Too bad I didn't get it today because I would have had all I need to finish the guitar...
...Indeed I found a present from the Offset Santa Claus in my mailbox... with a curious message..

...
Thanks Ben !

You mean like famous rock stars? Naaa... I pass that - seems like a boring daytime job....

Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

No worries: I'm still alive... but ... terrible hangover..
I've checked the wiring diagram for the guitar.
I'll give one more try to include the piezo. Ben told me the reason why it didn't work was the 2 way rhythm switch was connected to ground.. I'll remove this wire but I'm still not sure of one thing..
Should I put the little grey wire ??

(the diagram doesn't include the momentary kill switch.. but i'll put it for sure)

Good morning....
Wouldn't that just make the switch have two identical circuits in both positions?
I'm quite "tired" though, so - you tell me...

Oh yeah ! I'm "tired" too.. but I guess you're right !
Another early morning question:
I have all the pain in the world to remove the trem arm tip (I'll put a black one) annd I don't even know if I try correctly: Should I just pull it or unscrew it ?

My AVRI I bought from Angelas had a screw on tip. I'm not sure of the Japanese trems though....
