Guitar re-wire project
#2
Me mother picked up an unloved Chinese Strat type clone from the seconds shop for $15.
LOL, most of it is made of fiberglass. I was going to use it for parts. The neck would be nice on the Hondo.

"Azalea Premium Edition"  Book1 Next to nothing on the net about them. Company must have gone broke.

Nice green finish - yellow yuck streaks are light reflections from outside.
Put on some new strings -- it doesn't sound that bad.

Has a nice Telecaster twang in position 4, so I decided to fix it up.
That useless chrome string lock will be replaced with a bone nut as there's no bridge tuning.

Inside looked like spaghetti - any wonder the tone pots weren't working.
Five way pick-up selector only worked on position 2, 3 and 4.

I ripped the crapola 5 way switch out and added three mini toggles instead.

Not the pretties re-wire, but I can now see where everything is.
Unlike the Hondo, both tones were used in this rewire.
Bridge pick-up isn't effected by the tone pots.
