Doing Things Wrong

Lake Street Dive

Here's a band that deserves a lot more attention:

David Letterman positively gushed over this band.
He's usually pretty snarky with the musical guest.
Too bad that video was taken down.

If you ask me, these guys are hogging up way too much talent, they should leave some for other people !!!

One of the fun things about building electric guitars is wiring them up. Factory wiring tends to be simple, minimizing the amount of fussy handwork required. Many manufacturers keep strictly to 'classic' designs, seldom if ever changing anything. These designs are generally simplistic, often crude or even stupid, and sometimes outright flawed. There is no need for you to do this. I don't. Here are some of the things I have done over the years. I don't claim to have invented any of this, although some of these schematics I have never seen anywhere else, and had to derive them myself.
