Hey All!
Picked up this McCarty 594 in January and have been paying it non-stop! I've been planning to do a NGD post but just haven't gotten around to it yet - hopefully soon! I love pretty much everything about it except the white neck binding (needs to be curly maple!!) and...
The control layout. I've never been a Les Paul guy and the 4 knobs really are not doing it for me. I've tried to grow into it, but I really need my Master Volume, Master Tone layout here.
So, I'm thinking about making the upper knobs the masters and then replacing the lower pots with mini toggles to split each pickup. Or...
Still make the upper pots the masters, but then use one lower pot as a blend and the other as a master split toggle.
Now, while I do have some experience rewiring guitars, I've never dealt with coil splitting and nothing of this complexity. Just wanted to get some input from you guys about how difficult this may be to do!
Thanks, everyone!
