Cool. I could mod this one w/a CC, I suppose, or sell it. Wait, I am selling it! It's on Reverb, but I may as well post it over in For Sale land as well.

It's George Smith's arrangement of 'Estrelita', as found in the book 'Masters of the Plectrum Guitar'.

FYI: Unfortunately , Baytone pickups are no more as the founder and owner, John Anthony passed away some months ago.

I've been haunted by this guitar and the Dolphy tune recently posted on Youtube. I bit the bullet on the CCII from TK for a similar build. Wondering what you wound up doing in the control panel for volume and tone pots?
TK's diagram shows a 500k volume and 250k tone and a single PIO. Did you do anything different than that?
