I'm sure some people are interested in looking at some S2 guts. I had to open it up so I could replace the too-short bridge pickup height springs with rubber tubing. I found a nicely executed wiring setup with tight tolerances. It may be done overseas, but the components are a notch above the SE stuff. I still think they could stand some better feeling volume pots, though.
The routs. I laid a P-90 cover in there just for kicks, and found you may be able to put in a set without routing. You know someone's got to do it!
The controls are a pretty tight fit.
The G&B Number 7 pickups. Great balance and articulation, but a bit dark in my opinion.
A tidy wiring job.
Interesting choice on the caps. Both are .033uf, 5% variance.
2.2k resistor for the bridge coil split just like the core guitars. 5% variance.
The neck split has a 1.1k resistor.
Volume pots are not Alpha, as used in the SE line. They're marked JSE.
