Active Electronics
Active electronics can add a lot of fun to a project, as well as save you a lot of soldering. Options range from simple buffers and pre-amps to tone controls to on-board effects.
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.

I've wanted one of these for a long time. This is a 2-axis milling vise. You bolt it to your drill press, and it turns it into a light-duty milling machine, with the proper bits, which I have. The vise handle is at the left, the slide handles are at the front and right.
