Got another Warrior Pro

[Newc]

Sweet 1990 Warrior Pro in Ferarri Red (looks a shade darker than Big Red):





Pickups are Custom Shop Duncans I ordered: DistortionJr in Bridge1 (closest to bridge), CustomJr in Bridge2, and JazzJr in the neck.

Wired with a Jackson Special 5-Way switch for:
B1
B1 split + B2 split
B2
NK split
NK

Right now only the Volume knob is wired, but I'll put a Tone knob in it (soon as I find those caps I ordered months ago )

Haven't decided on what to do with the mini-toggle. Might make it a bypass/kill like on the Killer, or a split for B1 and seperate the B1+B2 connection from the 5-way.

The pickup spec sheets on the boxes read:
DistortionJr: 16.2K DC - 23 Gauss (whatever Gauss is)
CustomJr: 17.4K DC - 15 Gauss
JazzJr: 11.1K DC - 15 Gauss

I guess they thought I was going to put these in a Strat, because they sent me Strat-type mounting screws instead of direct-mount (pointed) wood screws. Luckily I had some that would work
And the stickers on the bottom of the pickups say Bridge, Middle, and Neck, even though when they called me for verification I told them both the Custom and Distortion were going in Bridge positions (I even sent a pic of a 1990 Warrior pickup layout to show them how it would look).

Ah well, they work, and they sound great, that's all that matters.

Where did you score that one from??????

Got it in a trade a couple months ago, but I think I killed the pickups when it got here - a Duncan Dimebag and something else. I put a bit too much pressure on the leads (since they come out of the f'n middle of the pickup body instead of the end) and now the Dimebag only shows output from the tap wires, so it sounds like a single coil.

So I ordered the Duncans and finally got them in.
