    Hey, I know this is a super tall ask, but if you could possibly use this program to walk through a wiring diagram on why it works/how you think about it, I'd sooo appreciate it (because I can't find anyyyyone talking about wiring like it anywhere n I'm a newbie). It uses 2 humbuckers, 2 push/pull pots, and a 5 way superswitch (was looking for a setup that used all of these and this was the SINGLE diagram I could find anywhere that utilized all of them!); it's series/parallel for the push/pulls, and pos2/4 of the 5 way is inner/outer coils (at least, I think that's what it's called? Like, if the pole order is screw/slug - slug/screw, it's just screw coils and just slug coils- not sure if that's exactly what the "inner/outer" configuration means haha). I've read n watched quite a bit of "beginner guitar wiring" tutorials now, but I'm still pretty confused with it, particularly because it uses a magnet flip and the wiring is seemingly flipped on one side. I know this has to do with the hum-cancelling, but I still dont fully "get" it (id go more in detail on why, but obviously this is getting way too long lol). Again, I know this is a tall ask so feel free to totally ignore this lol, but if you do decide that you'd want to do it I can send you the diagram (however), or you can try finding it on google images, via searching "2 humbuckers with 5 way switch pinterest". Sorry for typing an essay!

    If you were doing this to a squire or other entry level instrument, go for it. I’m all in for that. A Kiesel is a different story. If you were just going to change the finish I guess I’d still be on board. This was totally unneeded for such a high quality instrument. And to top it off you put your own logo on and try to pass it off as your own work? I’m no purist but this is beyond the pale.

    • @adairguitars
      @adairguitars 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s still a high quality guitar, it’s now a different colour and has a different pickup. The logo says that it is a mod and I think it’s pretty clear in the video that I’m not saying it’s my own build.

      Hey PP364! I’m the owner of the guitar, and all the work Arran put into this was at my request and specification (including the decal design which I provided). There’s no “passing it off”, and as mentioned in other replies this guitar was modded to a specific brief with a specific goal in mind. The neck already played beautifully - so the mods were to bring it into line with a tonal goal. (And that colour just had to go 😅). I’ve barely played my other guitars since this was completed. 🤘🏻

    And in case anyone is wondering… the plan has changed again for the switching (for the moment 😅) Currently it has a 4 way switch: 1 Direct out 2 Volume only 3 Volume and tone 4 Killswitch It’ll likely get changed to Esquire wiring plus the killswitch though. The direct is a little too in your face without the volume pot in the circuit, and the fixed tone will be the quasi-humbucker setting, rather than the full cocked wah effect. Fun times!

    Mate, this turned out better than I ever imagined! Thanks to Kiesel for the amazing guitar to start with, Nathan at Pennyroyal Pickups for that killer P90, and to Spero for not disowning me when I told him what was going to happen to his old guitar 😂 And thank you for the phenomenal work!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

    Nice build. Great to see a Dad and his son build a guitar together. Rock on!

    Hi is this a Les paul body?

    • @adairguitars
      @adairguitars 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s a combination shape of a Les Paul and a Brian May Red Special.

    That’s a really good idea are you willing to make some and sell them ? I’d buy one

    • @adairguitars
      @adairguitars 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks, but no plans to make to sell. Maybe one day if I get a cnc machine so I can cut everything easily and accurately.
