You said you ordered a Darkburst set. Did you mean a Godwood bridge and Darkburst neck?? Or two Darkbursts?
Oops! I phrased that poorly. The combo set: Godwood bridge and Darkburst neck. My bad.

o...hope that makes sense been on the scotch
Well, I am sure you will like them and I'm sure you will let us know!Oops! I phrased that poorly. The combo set: Godwood bridge and Darkburst neck. My bad.
In that first video you posted, the Darkburst neck sounds almost identical to my Crossroads, just more punch ... it's not any warmer or darker to me.
Well, I am sure you will like them and I'm sure you will let us know!
I might put on a jam track and run mine through its paces in all three switch positions as well just for comparison's sake. Not that it will really tell anybody much ... my Mustang III Fender Twin preset probably doesn't sound like their amp anyway ... or yours either for that matter. Plus remember I am using no-load tone pots, and that's the position I play in most of the time ... with no capacitor coloring the pickup at all. All it would probably result in is a long thread of people saying any difference between yours and mine is that yours is a semi-hollow, when 90% of any such difference is really the amps and settings, etc. Also, with my independent volume controls, there isn't just one middle position tone, there is a very wide spectrum of them ... all bridge, all neck, or any mix of them.You bet!
Jim said he hopes to ship by Tuesday, and the rest of the stuff I need to do the full mod should be here by Wednesday or so. I'll make sure I take pictures of the work, and record some noodling once it's all in place so you can hear.
Hotlicks, I just finished wiring up my new GFS XV-500 with independent volume controls and 50's wiring. I'll put it all right here in one place for you. Here is the main diagram I used.I've made a note of these mod's yesterday while catching up on the posts. I believe you've posted everything I would need to know to do that.
When I'm ready to make these mod's I may have some questions for you. I'm not very experienced in electronics in general.
Thank you RR!
See you down the road!
