The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

Maybe someone will help, by explaining what I've done to necessitate Static.TalkBass? I've uploaded the pictures...I believe they've all been compressed...but to see them, you've got to hit the IMG_****JPG. I'd like to write a tag for each, but it seems I'm not permitted. Any ideas? Thanks

I also cut the point off the headstock, sanded off the LTD logo and replaced it with the Om symbol. But the biggest improvement was replacing the stock pickups with Seymour Duncan NYC switchable humbuckers wired up to 3-way switches for Series/Single Coil/Parallel.

The switches are for:
