I was expecting my custom to be bright sounding due to the maple/ebony neckthru design, but upon completion it sounded thick and warm with lots of sustain. I'm thinking it must be the Caimito top (which is almost 3/4" thick) that gave it that warm tone. The push/pull pots are for single coil mode and for out of phase mode. The downside is, this is a heavy guitar (due to the caimito). I'ts not weight relieved or chambered but i like my guitar to be a bit heavy so all is fine. Bought a mono strap for more comfort (Thanks sir Jeff!  )

Big thanks to sir Spankyrigor for all the gold hardwares, Bournes pots an Orange drop cap..

Ganda!

congrats and kudos to mang max

Better call Mang Max. It depends kung anong ipapagawa mo.

[aaronlara]

ask ko lang isang araw/linggo ba tumatagal bago matapos ang isang guitar project kay mang max??

thanks!!

hmm... it depends sa job and bulk ng pending jobs nya. If youre thinking of a starting a guitar from scratch expect longer wait like 2-3 months since its more laborious and it also depends on the humidity.

oh btw, youre looking for a VBT-700 right? its pretty rare na. It took me 2 years before I found mine. You can check Audiophile I think they still have a stock left. 6 pcs lang daw ang pinasok nila dito. 3 Black and 3 White. Mine happens to be one of them.
