(x) Side LEDs

[jtussing]

Hey Mica, thanks for the pic!  Love the way things are turning out!

[jtussing]

Hey Mica, My latest carve pics have come up missing.  Can you please replace them when you get the chance?
 
Thx!

Well darn, I thought we'd seen the last of these hiccups. But Since I know exactly when I posted those, I think I've since corrected the problem, so maybe now we've seen the last of not seeing posted pics (it's also why there was a double post!).  
 
Anywhoo, here's the picture again:

Uh oh.  Mica, I just realized something.  I think we're missing a switch here!  Since I have anniversary electronics and side LEDs, I think there should be the following:  
 
1/4 jack
Stereo / Mono switch by the jack
Q switch x2
LED switch
4-way pickup selector with stand-by
two volume knobs
two LP Filter knobs
 
Am I missing something? If not, what can we do about it?
 
Thanks!
Jim

Also, could you please do a very quick mockup (text is ok) of which controls are what? I think that would help this discussion a lot (and I could fantasize more accurately).  
 
Thanks!

Hi Jim,
 
I know I'm not Mica, but maybe I can help :-)
 
I know that on mine they didn't drill the stereo/mono switch until close to the end of the build.  Also, I was thinking about an LED switch, and they said it would go in later, too, so I think yours is normal for this stage of production.
 
As to layout, let me try this...
 
........................selector
jack....bridge vol..........neck vol
....................bridge Q...........neck Q
........bridge lpf ......... neck lpf
 
Hope this helps,
 
Charles
 
 P.S. That has got to be the most stunning piece of quilt I've ever seen.  I bet it is going to explode when the finish hits it! MMMMM!

Hi Jim, Your piece is beautiful! May I ask what body shape is this?
 
Thanks, Paul

Woops, I did see balance K above Jim. Thanks, Paul
 
Nice Nice Nice!!

[jtussing]

Hey Paul,
 
Can't wait to watch your bass being built.  Yes, mine is a balance K on a five string.  
 
Me & da fam will be in Princeville next week! I hope it doesn't snow!

Mica,  
 
Per our conversation (and for the benefit of those listening), the reason soon-to-be-my bass one hole short is that the LED switch is never drilled by program, but only by hand.  So what we see here is the Anniversary drill pattern sans one LED switch.
 
Let that be a lesson to all you out there! Doubt the Mothership at your own peril!  :-)
 
Peace.

And Charles, thanks a ton you were exactly right! Appreciate the thoughts on the maple. I was stunned when I first saw it. I almost asked for it going through the online QM woodpile but when I saw the piece of wood was added in 2004 I thought it couldn't possibly still be there. I almost pooped when I saw that Mica & Susan had picked it for me. I know - TMI.... :-)
 
Thanks & regards,
Jim

Hey Mica! Hope you are well.  Just curious about whether there are any updates on my bass?  
 
Thanks!

It is the moment you've been waiting for...
