1. Neck humbucker
2. Neck outer coil (too weak, prefer both coils in Parallel)
3. Both inner coils (spanky but a bit bland)
4. Bridge outer coil (a bit weak volume wise)
5. Bridge humbucker.
My recommendation:
1 Neck HB
2 Neck (Partial split with 5k resistor)
3 both HBs or neck HB + bridge split in parallel or inner/outer coils in series)
4 Bridge (partial split 8k resistor)
5 Bridge HB
The simplest to do without a 5 way superswitch would be would be the PRS 3 way switch wiring where the partal split is on the tone knob push pull.
Covers are held in with neodymium magnets. Not using screws means that I can route and sand the covers and body to shape. The magnets are inset by 0.5mm. To make the shallow holes I used a brad bit drill, and rotated the drill chuck backwards by hand. Rotating forwards bites too much. The base of each hole was then levelled with a nail punch before glueing the magnet in.
The blue ink on the magnets is how I know north from south, and don’t glue the magnets in the wrong way up.
I’ve just ordered a plug cutter bit.
The interminable sanding has to be paused until the hole is plugged. Normally I prefer bound bodies. Black or white plastic binding outlines the shape, and protects the body from those inevitable bumps. So it felt strange to round off the edges. I started with a round over bit, and then sanded further to produce a fully round edge. This is where I got to. It reminds me of the well worn hand carved items which you find in museums.
It puts me in mind of a Teuffel Niwa version of a Klein, which is a very cool idea!
