I have been assembling a Preacher with a Preacher Deluxe neck and Viper Pups. All new pots, including a blender. Only running mono for now. I'll throw more in the Gallery. | ||

Here's a question for you - I have two Preacher Deluxe PGs. One of them has an extra hole near the switches and knobs... any idea what this is for? None of the preamp boards I have fit this. | ||

In-phase, out of phase, single (half hum), etc. Probably had one of those Jim Rickard holy-mojo boosters in it! It you need it covered in Walnut, Mahogany or Koa let me know! | ||

Also, looked through your "Projects" gallery. I didn't remember that black Strat (also with the walnut PG?) -- that's a stunner -- how did it turn out for you tone wise? Very cool. _____ gh1 | ||
