Nice bike El, I like it. :thumb-up:

So, here's a coincidence for you ... a picture of my workshop at home, centre stage is a 1993 Dyna Wide Glide, it's a work in progress ;)

If you look real close at my points cover, you can see there's a guitar on it with flames.    :banana-rock:

The mahogany necks I worked on were initially treated so I had to sand off the original finish.
Since your neck is completely unfinished, you might wanna start by applying some (2-3) coats of Birchwood Casey Sealer/Filler, sanding with 000 steel wool in between before applying the Gunstock Oil and Wax....

Ok so after a strange setback that ended with the tremolo that originaly was bought for this proyect getting "lost" in the mail and loosing that money I ordered a 2nd one and now I have all the parts to assemble the build!!! Phase one will be just 1 humbucker and 1 push-pull volume knob (for parallel not split) and then Phase two will add a neck hum and a switch to wire them with a Petrucci wiring! So this will be a busy weekend!!! :)

Why parallel and not split?

I wire all my humbuckers series/parallel rather than split, it gives a similar effect and maintains the humbucker aspect. In the Anderson, each PU has a 3 way switch series/off/parallel. The squire strat I'm doing up has 2 push pull vol nobs again wired series/parallel, one for the hot rails (bridge) and one for the little 59 in the neck and the little 59 is out of phase.

Well let's look at it in a pure electrical way.Let's say you have a PU with a 10k dc resistance.So in theory both coils are 5k.
If you do a split coil you end up with 5k but in parallel you end up with 2.5k.This will have an effect on the sound will it not?
And ok it's the dc resistance but the impedance will also change in the same manner.
