    Suddenly I am craving Capt'n Crunch cereal and I think it's time for a nap as soon as Beavis and Butthead go off the air.

    I guess the LPs will have to wait.

    Where in the heck are those Beatles albums when you need them?

    Got up at 5:30 am. Cleaned up the work area (I'm a slob sometimes). Yanked the Antiquitys and pots out of my 95 Wine Std and installed the Phat Cats, CTS pots and Sprague caps into the 95 Std. Done by 7:30 am including clean up and proper caffienation. Played the guitar for a bit, I'll start on the 59 RI at 8:30.

    You guys got anything done yet this morning? It's church or chores, you pick.

    But is it 2 in the afternoon yersterday, tomorrow or today? Fresh pots always does this to me.

    By now you have discovered that I tech in the nude. Please quit watching me work, it's far too creepy.

    The 59 is all done and its only 10:19 am, unless you are Zerb and then who the hell knows.

    I think I need a break to get my eyes to re-focus before I dig into the Honeyburst. It's only a magnet swap and 1 dpdt but the JP wiring looks like spagetti so I'm gonna need fresh peepers.

    Anyone want a coffee while I'm up?

    I haven't had a chance to give them a full and hard workout but so far they sound awesome.

    All done!

    Sort of.....

    I have CTS pots and orange drops in the wine with the Phat Cats.

    I have CTS pots and orange drops in the 59 RI with Antiquitys.

    I replaced a push pull pot and changed the CC in my Honeyburst to a C-5.

    I think I prefer the CC in this guitar though. I used to dig it the C-5 in this guitar and in the PRS CU24 that I have since sold but I think I'll change back to the CC in this one. This LP has a lot of low end throat already and the CC is a better match.

    Fortunately a magnet swap only takes a couple of minutes!
