Hopefully it wouldn't be too much to ask considering I've never posted here before this, but I was wondering if I could enlist the hands-on help of some of you regulars?
Here's some background information that might come in handy:
Basically, I have three guitars. I have a Fender Strat/Splat, an old Franciscan Classical-styled guitar, and one that you've never even heard of before. Not that it's just some small brand or anything, but my Dad's friend built in when he was in High School, and it found its way into my hands when I was 11 years old. Now, the guitar itself isn't too shabby, it's a bit of a compromise between a Fender Strat and a Gibson SG (really thin strat body, but pointed cuts like an SG). The pickguard, switches, and knobs are all custom made out of stainless steel. The pickups were hand-made, too.
Now, I ended up dismantling the guitar for practice with repairing guitars a long time ago, but I saved the pieces. I'm planning on buying new pickups, new parts and stuff for it, but I'm a complete and utter newbie when it comes to wiring. If I take some pictures of the guitar, the parts (or at least what I have leftover), can you all tell me what I need to buy, and how to assemble it?
Thanks a million.
