Soon (hopefully) to be transformed into a three-pickup, five-control, double-output beast. I plan to wind all three pickups myself. | Very cool...what will the third pickup be?

And an equally insane wiring schematic, but I'm saving the explanation of that that for when I actually draw one up.

Walnut, Mocka, Root Beer... I think those are all names for that color, though not sure which is the "real name" May be Walnut as Billy_B mentioned.

Always been a J man but wanted to try a bit of P puppy power. This thing is LOUD. Nice active per-amp.

If only I was a King Crimson fan....  |
