The old biddies at the rsl club are going to love the kill switch machine gun sound. If you want a really nice killswitch and pot in one look at the shadow kill pot.

Re: Finished killswitch mod on Artist DC60
I see. I wanted to get rid of the neck pickup tone pot and just have 1 tone pot for both. But now it has an irritating problem. It sounds like it's stuck in the middle position on the selector switch permenantly, regardless of switch position. Even if I roll off the neck pickup volume.

Re: Finished killswitch mod on Artist DC60
I like how the guitar is on the oven with a suspected sandwich maker headrest lol.
Is the inox used for cooking?
Is that a soldering iron floating in mid air?
Are you at jerry's?

No, the inox is not used for cooking, and yes that is a soldering iron floating in mid air, and no I'm not at Jerry's. Whoever that is. The guitar sounds fat under gain, and sorta blues-ish on clean (Being stuck in the middle position lol)

If it was working before and the only thing you changed was the toggle kill switch i guess that might indicate where the problem is? Seems strange.

It might be a ''secret setting'' only you have.

Re: Finished killswitch mod on Artist DC60
Haha, funny. Well it does sound KIND OF unique? The selector switch still selects the pickups but the neck pickup for some reason is always on? (even when I roll the volume for that pickup off, while the switch is in the bridge position, otherwise when I put it into the neck or middle, it cuts out like normal)

I will probably get my tech bud to look it over, though I'm confident I've done almost everything correctly. I bought the switch from Jaycar, so yeah.

Re: Finished killswitch mod on Artist DC60
Looks like you've connected the bridge tone control and neck volume to the kill switch. The kill switch should be wired between the pickup selector switch and the output jack, not the pickups.
And adding wires out of boredom is not the way to fix wiring.
Also, I don't see a ground wire going to the jack. If that's the case, I'm surprised this works at all, unless you keep one hand on the strings and the other on some conduit in your house.
