Well, I have to say The Holy Stain is a lot of fun. Probably a bit 'noisy' if you are into gigging or recording, but at home it sounds beautiful. As for The Old Burny One, well the good news was that I did the soldering, the bad that it was dodo-dead when I plugged it in.
Looking at the wirey bits alll in depth like, it seems I've managed to knacker the lovely switchcraft switch - two little lugs that connect it to the pickups were both pulled-out and dangling in the breeze.
Which would explain the silence somewhat
Anyway I've taken it to bits, and put it back together, but still the silence persists. So I dunno. I'll check everything else to make sure it isn't something I've similarly knackered-up, but if not I'll have to get another switch.
I thought I had one,
but I don't,
so there we are.
Click-click shopping again.

| The Golden Shower and Old Burny Ones In that order. Sounds like a night out with a chap called Rooney |
Which to keep though...
The eternal question - do you go for the quality of an oldie-but-goodie, or do you go for the cheap thrill of the Golden Shower. Odd to think they are 30-ish and 40-ish years old.
Hmmm...
At times like this I start to wonder to myself, 'What would Rooney do?'
And the truth is, I don't know, never met the bloke. Blah blah blah.
Plan B, if the Burny seems temporarily terminal, is that I may as well have a go at drilling the holes in The Floored Genius One, which is a case of biting the gun and generally loining my gurns, but it needs to be done and heh, casualty on a Friday isn't the end of the world.
But there we are, another day in nirvana beckons
