Skylark question
« on: June 14, 2003, 11:15:18 AM »
Hey Mica,
I was fortunate enough to try out a Skylark model at the Guitar Showcase in San Jose yesterday. I instantly fell in love with it!!! However, I have a couple of questions regarding customizing/special ordering a Skylark guitar. First, is it possible to get a single-coil pickup added to the neck position and have it similar to the Further pickup configuration? Second, could I have it wired to have one master volume and three tone knobs?
Any info would be greatly appreciated. I can't wait to order my dream guitar!!!
Thanks

mica

Glad you had a chance to try out the Skylark. The one at Guitar Showcase is actually the very first one we made.  
 
You can order the Further pickup/electronics combination on a custom Skylark. You can either include or omit the effects loop.  
 
I heard from Terry today that you'll be coming by on Friday, so you'll get to try out the different electronics and several wood combinations. See you then!

Hey Mica!
Sorry about the delay in coming up there for a visit. But, I'll definitely be there this Friday. I'm really looking forward to it!
I'll be like a kid in a candy store!!!

Hey Mica,
I want to thank you and your Mom for a wonderful afternoon last Friday. I had such a great time being able to try out your various guitar models and discussing all of the details with both of you. It truly made a world of difference!
Hopefully, you guys received my order today through Terry (at Guitar Showcase).
Now the hard part - the wait!  
I have a favor to ask, though ..... would it be possible to get some shots of my Skylark being built? That would be fantastic! Plus, I can show everyone my new baby being built!
Well, it's just a request....
Anyways,  
Thanks again to both Mica & Susan!
You guys are the best!
-Fred
