Glad I could help! It's great to here you've got it working.
As you said, it does add some fuzz to the sound. Your schematic looks 100x better than mine. If you need any more info (ie. the rest of the wiring diagram) just let me know. I'm hoping to take lessons someday so that I can really tap into the full potential of this guitar. I bought it in high school because it was cheap and I figured I could teach myself.... well, about 20 years later I'm still trying to teach myself.
But the guitar has held up well. Thanks again for the web site. I used to be a little embarassed to tell people I owned a "JC Penny Guitar." But now that I know more about the guitar I'm glad I did buy it. When I bought it, I thought it did resemble the Aria's, and now I know why.
Thanks!
