Being a "Curious George" myself, I like how you took pics front and back
of those cool zebra pickups.

Thanks for all the work you did on the project.

Thank you kindly gents!! :D I'm so glad that the skeleton is complete. I did some more revising to the sheet today at work and i added some stuff but i'll submit after i get full confimation on the info needed. I just hope this helps some folks out. hey what did you guys think of the possible serial number switch number connection? That's one of my favorite parts.

remember those switches i sent you a while ago? those are fujisoku switches which are what is in the u70's i own. the switches in my guitars had some numbers on them, so when i went to try and find out if they still made that model of switch i read every number off to the representative i was speaking to from strategic switch and audio and he told me that one set of numbers were the date of manufacture and the other was the model number but this is cool the numbers coincide with the serial numbers on my guitars-meaning one serial number is earlier than the other and the dates on the switches match with the guitars numbers, the earlier date with the earlier serial number and the later date with the later serial number. pretty cool huh?
