Guitar Wiring South London

in Made in the UK
afternoon folks.

i need a complete rewrite of my Fender Cabronita. I foolishly though of installing a wiring harness and some TV Jones pickups, but lost my patience and it appears I have dumped the harness while clearing out the house. 

Dont fancy inporting another one from America and would rather just pay someone to do a proper job and maybe a bone nut installed as well. 

Any recommendations from the good folk on this board ?

    Mexican or American, there is not very much to a LCT control harness. Two 'Trons, one three-way toggle selector switch, one audio taper 500k volume pot, one jack socket, one bridge ground wire. All of these are freely available from UK stockists.

    Jon Dickinson at Antenna Studios in Crystal Palace comes highly recommended from me. He's done a few bone nuts for me (he does them from scratch and has a great 'when I was an apprentice' story concerning how he was taught the skill)

    Yep. I also used Jon at Antenna and he's good.

    Certainly - if being in tune is something you like and you like that guitar

    The Earvana nut is £30 and fitting/cutting/set-up is about £50.

    Right. I think I will give that a go.
