This is such a unique channel, found you off another channel during my rabbit hole research on hexaphonic and single string pickups (like Atlansia) glad I found ya, cant wait to see what else youll come up with!
Well thank you! I'm hoping I can bring a unique perspective to this sort of thing as I'm a much more experienced engineer than musician. Working on a drum machine that I hope you're able to check out soon!
i would usually tell someone in your position to not worry about modding your guitars until you have enough expirience under your belt and know exactly what it is you want and need in a guitar, but you seem to know what your doing as far as electrical engineering and prototyping so thats really cool.
It's been fun approaching things from an engineering perspective with a more limited musical knowledge. Thanks so much for your comment. I've got some other fun builds planned/in progress so I hope you will check back!
@@bobhope4949 Thanks for the suggestions! Have been considering how to make a quick-select normally on/normally off killswitch, but haven't quite gotten around to it. So many ideas!
the layers of ply are to maintain stability because single ply pickguards crack or warp under sunlight. As far as i know. But being used to make designs also makes sense so i dunno for due lol
I'm using an encoder as a killswitch, which grounds out the signal. There's a drawing of the setup at 9:01. Working on a video about that specifically, and hope to have it up in a week or two. Thanks for your comment, would love to hear your thoughts once I get the "kill wheel" explained properly!

That light-up guitar plug-in module is really boss! Nice work, Jeremy!
Thanks Pat!
I don't even know what to say when I look at this.
Always nice to hear when my videos make one speechless ;-)
This hot-swap device is REALLY convenient for trying out new ideas. Anything else I should do with it?
Pitch bender, mabey an octave selector ya can run through different octaves. Tom morello shit

Gibson had a similar system with their Axess Les Paul, where you could change the pickups.
Very neat! Had seen at least one other swapping device, but didn't know Gibson tried such a thing. Guess it wasn't a huge success?
That plexiglass one back in the day, forgot who made it……
@@bobhope4949 Dan Armstrong Lucite. Granted you could only change the bridge pickup on that one.

Thanks for letting me know. That makes sense.
What is type of circuit is that killswitch Module circuit?

well it's a cheap guitar i presume. no way in hell would i do that to something pricey. Luthiers gotta start somewhere and i guess you're on your way.
Your assumption is correct. Not aiming to be a luthier per se, but enjoy experimenting.
How to break your guitar, and make sure it sounds broken.
It's meant as a platform to help me experiment with new ideas. Maybe others will find it useful.
@@cookedaudio I'd recommend learning how to play first. Then you'll be a better judge of whether destroying your guitar is a good idea or not.
@@antonyfaulkner8649 I see.
