The wiring wasn't monkeyed with at all, down to the .0047 cap. Jury is still out on removing it - normally I would, but I want to mess with some ROS bimaping stuff first.
Push-Pull?

Push-pull bimaping? Hmm, interesting idea. :P

Well, why have an archive if you aren't allowed to exhume a thread once in a while? 8)

I realized the fingerboard had previously separated from the neck, and someone unsuccessfully tried to glue it back, but the separation opened back up, and then the glue re-dried, so in a nutshell there's no way I could have made it work without removing and reattaching the whole fingerboard.

So I returned it within 30 days to the Brea GC.
It remained there for a VERRRRY long time after you brought it back.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)
