mate it's already a 3 hour show, do you want to make it a 3 day show?

Our first show of this tour was cancelled once already. Now it's on Saturday and it's highly likely that it will be cancelled again. Fuck.

Cancellation sucks a.r.s.e, but yay for the Obsidian Wire harness! Which one did you get?

HSS Strat. I've got a Seymour duncan, think it's a JB junior to install. I'm hoping with that one guitar I'll get bridge pickup rock, u2 position two and bluesy neck sounds. Just about the perfect covers band guitar.

I've had HSS Strats before but struggled to get the a blend right between the hum bucker and singles so I'm hopeful that the wiring scheme with auto coil split and 500K and 250k pots will help get the blend right

Bummer, my missus was genuinely excited when she saw the gig. I said "Oh that will be Ben", I'm never one to get overly excited.
We have a few weeks so hopeful...

Not as detailed as my usual build albums as it was basically research what parts Bruce had in his Tele (which changed a lot over time) but got down to the small details such as the Tusq string trees, and make the Ash body with the relicing from many photos I found online
