Hey man, I will post updates as they come. I've worked on the head shell this week as I was still waiting for some parts from Mouser and Tube Town. Not a single solder joint done yet :?

As for my thread about the #002 build: I initially started this whole journey with the idea of building some sort of Steel String Singer. About half a year ago I stumbled upon this forum, found Erwin's thread and being the quick thinker that I am bought one of his chassis. Just a few weeks later I abandoned the whole project as I had to confess to myself that I'm just not really into the whole Mayer thing. Found out a couple weeks later that there are layouts for something #005-ish and being the Eric Johnson nut that I am, I just had to tackle that project. I am also building a Super Lead at the moment, so that fits my plans perfectly. :)

What did you do with the abandoned Erwin chassis please? If it is to be for sale I may be interested (also in EU).
