This is a luxurious "Baritone" version with two-tone paintwork.

Alright, my #7 is finished. It traveled a kind of circuitous route getting there, but I'm satisfied now. Mostly. The neck pickup is still a little hotter than the bridge pickup, but the Orlando guitar show starts Friday and I've got more work to do before I get out the door.
The pickups are Artec AlniCo 12-polepiece humbuckers. The DC resistance of the bridge pickup measured out at 17.19K. The neck was 8.3K. I put an Artec Varitone (QTP module) in it and an EHC milspec machined aluminum black anodized knob.

The original ES-345 debuted in 1959 in response to demand for an upgrade on the revolutionary new semi-hollowbody design of the ES-335, with Varitone electronics and double-parallelogram inlay.

MGZB in the attractive livery of Birch Grey over Twilight Grey, registration 663 DKM , this car belonged to one of our collectors.The ZB version of the MG Magnette superseded the MGZA and was launched in 1956. It was more powerful than its predecessor and some bodywork modifications on some of the new models included a wider rear windscreen with a wrap-around curved effect round the edges. The ZB was only produced for two years and latterly, the two-tone variant became available with the bonnet, roof lid painted in a lighter shade than the darker bottom half of the body.
1500cc BMC B series engine,these were known as Varitones because of the two tone colour schemes.Look at that Bean 14
in the garage.

I had a bizarre task set for me this week for my journalism degree. It was called psychogeography. I had to find a feature in a very small box placed on a map of London. Mine was just around Cambridge Heath station. I saw this little alley en route and wandered what was going on...

Quadra Tone Peaking in da house! Heh...I was drilling out the Volume control for a 3/8" pot today and realized that the QTP module takes some kind of metric hole. I don't have any metric drill bits, so I got close and then reamed the hole a little with my Dremel. The shaft fits perfectly. So we're all set for the little experiment now. I couldn't help myself, so I put the module in and fastened a Chicken Head knob to it just to see what it's going to look like on a Junior body. Me likey.

The only shot I took of a trusty subject tonight (due to bad weather). I know I'm getting desperate now I'm nearly at the end . . . . my only other shots were of the wall of McDonalds :-(
