Not your best work. Thats sat on the stand here next to my desk - but a close second
And I too love the surfboard truss rod cover!

Re: Number 32
I didn't consider how visible the switch would be...its a gibson style long switch (as noted from an SG harness) so its a bit obvious in the F hole.
Anyone have an opinion on the mini knobs? again driven by the harness and F-hole...full size ones sat too close.
O the joys of constant prototypes!

Not in love with mini knobs, like JB, I like them with a bit of girth, I prefer gibson speed knobs to the old top hat style.

painting it black is a good idea....to rotate it Id have to re do the harness soldering ...and soldering is not my strong point.
Ill give that a go.

I of course disagree. The best one is sitting next to my desk!
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

You're entitled to your opinion, however misguided and incorrect.

You took the words right out of my mouth.
And Meatloaf is low hanging fruit, OK?

Re: Number 32
well maybe not Paradise by the Dashboard light, but 1 minute with a black sharpie certainly made the switch less obvious!
