Haha the Washburn N4 was finally soldered back together today after i gave up trying to do it myself as too many wires to put onto back of volume pot. Had Lewis do it while I held some of the wires (7 in total lol).
Restrung tonight when back from Edinburgh got trem floating intonation just peachy and it rawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now has OFR, SD 59 was changed to a 4 wire to allow it and bridge pup to be coil tapped on the vol pot which has pull/push knob. Tried on amplitube tonight and sounds great and will give it test drive on Blackstar tommorrow when home from work :smile:

Well done stew, with help from Lewis, so long as you keep away from it with those power tools it should be just fine.

I still maintain that I was unlucky that I did not realise the perspex template had a split in it and therefore when came to the last side of trem cavity was going really well and boof massive gouge out the wood. Could have been worse if had slipped and I get a finger, i may have to take up bass due to one minus finger and give up the day hobbie. lol
