A quick, and slightly uncoordinated, demo of my latest build. It's a solid oak neck and body in a Bolivar Britanicas box. The solid body is stuck to the base of the box, not the lid.
Artec rail pup (coil tapped), 500k CTS linear pots, 0.015 paper in oil cap (courtesy of 407bug).
I really must learn to play these things !

Thanks Wes and Anders. Wiring :-\ I know quite a few of the words now, like 'pots' and 'caps'. Trouble is, I don't really know how each variable changes the sound.

Thanks Col - I wish we could have stayed longer, we really enjoyed it. Our afternoon was probably a bit more relaxed than yours !
