    From the pics I saw and threads on toggle looks like you may just need the short shaft pots and switch? I have a bunch of CTS(short & long)arriving in the next day or so if you need any?

    Yeah my PM's are turned off here at MLP I don't use them. Tonemojo.com is my website, check out my newsletter. The short shaft 500k CTS pots (3/8 threads) are $6.00 each and the longshaft are $9.00 (3/4" threads)each if you have a custom top may be thicker and require the long shaft pots so you need to check and see what you need to be sure? Same with switch it will be either short or long depending on what top you have. I would also upgrade wiring to switch and install new 1/4" switchcraft input jack with braided wire like Gibsons have. Also good PIO Tone caps would be an improvement as well, You can email me at jonesyblues@yahoo.com if you would like to place an order, or get more pricing? thanks, jonesy

    I got the rings from Red Baron as well and I think he aged them with some brown shoe polish. Just scuff them up a little and smear them with it. When you wipe most of it back off the scratches will still retain some of the gunk. I'm sure you can get them cheap off eBay or something, like to buy one each of these:
    DiMarzio Short White Humbucker Mounting Ring W/Screws - eBay (item 370090814117 end time Jan-25-09 11:14:03 PST)

    DiMarzio Tall White Humbucker Mounting Ring W/Screws - eBay (item 190255276421 end time Jan-25-09 11:26:39 PST)

    And yes, they are white as snow without any aging, haha.

    Thanks! I like the way it looks as well, I'm more or less ready to call it done when I get a historic style TRC. The parts are from different manufacturers: Pickup rings are DiMarzio, pickguard and toggle switch ring off of some Japanese LP (bought these from forum member Red Baron, already aged), pickup covers and Kluson double ring single line tuners are RS Guitarworks, and it has an RS kit installed as well, though that's below the surface. I'm not really into the whole relic thing, but the guitar is after all 19 years old, so it made sense to put aged parts on it. Overall it's a much more delightful experience to play the guitar now that I'm so much more happy about how it looks.
