So I've decided to begin doing some electronic projects out of curiosity. I've started construction on a pedal, and hope to begin doing some mods to a Mex strat I have had for a while also.
The pedal is nothing fancy, just something to cut my teeth on, so to speak. It's a frequency specific booster, and I hope mainly to gain an understanding of what you have to do in order to solder correctly, and so on. If it works even better, I'll have a neat pedal in addition to learning some things.
As to the strat, I've ordered a custom drilled pickguard, as I lack the tools myself, and plan on replacing my 5-way switch with 3 individual switches ala Brian May. With this I should be able to change each individual pickup to in-phase, out-of-phase, or off, and create some pretty interesting sounds. While I'm in there I also wanted to upgrade my stock pickups to something better. I'm still looking for something to catch my eye, but I'm hoping to get some good advice on the thread I started.
If anyone reads this and has some good advice feel free to send me a message, I'd be very interested to hear what others with more experience have to say.
