On the bench:
-Partscaster Tele.
Work:
-Clean and setup.
-New wiring.
-Installed new neck and bridge pickups.
-Installed new pots.
-Filed/shaped metal control plate to mount new pots.
-Installed new cap.
-Installed new output jack.
-Filled incorrect hole for mounting plate and drilled new one.
-High fret seated and spot leveled, crowned and polished to relieve buzzing issue.
-Pots are 500k, so I wired a 470 resistor for the single coil in the neck so it seems closer to 250k.
-Will intonate and call it done.

On the bench:
Gibson Les Paul Studio Plus
-Clean and setup.
-New MojoTone toggle switch.
-All new wiring inside.
-New switchcraft output jack.
-New CTS 525k pots.
-50s wiring scheme.
-.015 Vitamin T cap for the neck.
-.022 k40Y-9 for the bridge.
-New Planet Tone Blues Heritage pickups installed.
-Shielding tape added to control plate.
-I always strive to leave all factory lead length on pickups that are installed.
- I also shrink wrap things like the excess vintage braiding in the cavity, the legs on the caps, and ensure caps have proper side ran to ground for quietest operation.
