Right, well I have this guitar that I am trying to sell. The person said if I put it all together, he will give me a good price for it. Basically, I don't want to spend loads fixing it as I want to make some money here. I have 2 really crap pickups in my shed, but the wire on it aren't long enough.

I am going to try to extend them wire more wire, but will it work and not sound horrible? Since the pups are bad enough!

Off to a flying start, I see. LOL.

You can get some wiring tips from the >DiMarzio< website.

Just remember: "You can't polish a turd!" :p

I'm trying to shift it, not spend a fortune on it. I have a perfectly good guitar for my own use with great pups in
