S-3 Project Feedback...
Posted: Tue Mar 21, 2017 4:02 am
I would like any feedback anyone can give on what I am thinking about. If you did it or something similar then post it with pics here!
Since we can no longer get a stock S-3 (or maybe it would be an ASAT with 3 - S-500 pickups) I want to alter a new guitar to make one -- but with one difference. I want a fulcrum vibrato.
After much research it would seem the easiest and least expensive way of doing this is (while keeping the integrity of the guitar) is:
1. Order my preferred custom Z3 with fulcrum vibrato directly from a dealer
2. Order a replacement pick guard fully loaded with S-500 pickups
3. replace on guitar upon arrival
4. enjoy
Also in addition I was wondering if anyone has added the PTB system to an S-3? I think also not too hard:
1. Get replacement control plate with 3 holes
2. Add the correct wiring and switch for an s-500 or legacy (can add a push/pull for pick up config)
3. Enjoy
