I figured it out. I had everything wired up right initially, but taking the guitar to a room with better lighting revealed a tiny, almost hair thin piece of solder shorting my circuit. :x Easy fix though. My soldering iron fucking sucks... I was never a fan of the active pickup until recently, and I...

All I have to say is that if you're using a high output pickup, get a MINIMUM 500k pot. Wires really don't matter a hell of a lot as long as you solder everything properly. http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics,_pickups/Potentiometers/Specialty_Control_Pots.html As the site says "A 1 Meg-ohm ...

So do you have any guitars that are more than 2k? And do they have custom specs? No, because I don't think a guitar should cost that much. 1,000, fine. But anything over 1,500 is pushing it.

Honestly? No. I challenge the notion that any factory guitar is worth over 1500 dollars. Once you hit the 2k mark, you should be entitled to custom specifications.

And I've played a few PRS guitars. Very nice, but not worth the price tag.

To be perfectly honest, 8 strings are so uncommon that you're not going to get one for less than a seriously nice 6 or 7 string, especially with a custom body shape. True, but if I have some private person who builds guitars (and knows what they're doing) put together a neck and body with no electr...
