How To Install a Killswitch (THE RIGHT WAY)

[wanderer1031]

i wish more humans would spontaneously combust. it would make my life better to have that shit go down randomly but often, like you run into the store for a drink and wait in line and then the cashier just all of sudden (or "spontaneously") flares up and starts to open the mouth to cream, i mean scream, but burns up into ashes so quickly no sound is ever heard. what a bunch of god damn bullshit! "perfect plan" my ass, the maker just don't know whats up. in my opinion anyways.

[MrSr777]

ok i need solder. ok i will go to UN and steal one

[frozenfire737]

What do you do with the wires already attached to the hot and ground?

[LeeChi31]

Button* Momantary?

[BeeGreeen]

I cant tell which one is A and which one is B.....they both look like O

[MBPtheFirst]

1...2...7.. So many spelling mistakes :L

[gunnerboy773]

@MBPtheFirst Whatever man.

[VinceUragVFX]

it's butteon not botton

It's Separate not seperate

BTW nice video! =) Cheers!

[patmagroing]

@VinceUragVFX it's actually button, not "butteon."

[VinceUragVFX]

@patmagroing It's actually a typo. :) Take it easy.

[ListedProduction]

You spelled "then" wrong...

It's not "than pay attention", that's the wrong article. It's "then"

[gunnerboy773]

@ListedProduction Ok dick. I was like 13 or so when I made this.



[ListedProduction]

@gunnerboy773 Congrats...?

[jonee140]

@gunnerboy773 u mad bra?

[darusgn]

is it meant to be push to make or push to break

[Natural671Mystic]

you probably heard this one already but what do I do with the wires that are already on the output jacks hot and ground?

[MrSnowyzzzz]

Momentary,separate,completely.­Buy a dick-tionary.

[commando3033]

is this for a normally open or normally closed switch?

[gunnerboy773]

@commando3033 open

[bazthespaz95]

@jhenderson93 you don't need to remove any mate, just drill a hole in the middle of the two or just wherever you have space ! (: watch out for any wires though and make sure the hole's precise :D

[davehendrix89]

what about the wires already connected to the input jack?

[mitchtheskater123]

i know there are 2 prongs on the output, but does it matter which side you solder the hot or ground to on the switch? and could you do this with a toggle switch instead of a button?

[MrphilipLP]

thanx for the great video, man

im gonna build myself a guitar and totaly do this

[jhenderson93]

Right, so I'm thinking of doing this on a telecaster. Which only has two controls, one for tone and one for volume, which should I remove? The volume control or the tone control?

[gunnerboy773]

@jhenderson93 Remove the tone control. You'll need the volume of course.

[Iraqnid2088]

So finally after like 2 and a half hours of fiddling with the damn guitar I managed to get the thing in there, carving holes and all. It works like a charm and is damn fun to mess with.. I feel so accomplished :D

[Iraqnid2088]

Honestly out of all the videos i've seen, THIS is the ONLY one that made me feel confident about modding my guitar o_o TIME TO FIND WIRE BUAHAHAH :D

[gunnerboy773]

@Iraqnid2088 hahaha hope this video helped! :)

[Iraqnid2088]

@gunnerboy773

Oh it did :D Im gonna bring my guitar to school tomorrow and impress my friends :D :D lol thanks a bunch dude I have this like newly acquired sense of confidence XD

[gunnerboy773]

@Iraqnid2088 haha no problem man!

[Iraqnid2088]

@gunnerboy773

Damnit dont stalk me foo! lol jk XD Wtf are you replying to my comments so early for O_O lol XD

[xspidermanplayax]

dude i dont get it if you didi this you would end up with just an output jack with a killswich. how would you get the killswithck to the pickup?

[slash32000]

Can this work on any guitar ?

btw greatt video

[gunnerboy773]

@slash32000 Yeah if your guirtar is an electric and has an output jack than it will work! and thanks

[trolden9520]

Idiot-proof :)

I liked your drawings as well :) They made it easier to understand :)

[gunnerboy773]

@trolden9520 haha this is idiot proof!

i should re-name the vid 'how to install an killswitch for dummys!'

[trolden9520]

@gunnerboy773 Yeah :P BTW, just installed my killswitch today, its easy as pie :) My only problem is that i had to run the wires behind the guitar, on the outer side :P It's on an SG, so i couldn't fit it in the room with the other knobs, and still having it easy availabe :P

[CleburneZEROSk8er]

how do you locate hot &ground

[gunnerboy773]

@CleburneZEROSk8er Ok dude on you INPUT JACK there are 2 PRONGS. those two prongs are the hut and ground.

[crispynessification]

this is actually the most helpful video ive seen so far

[gunnerboy773]

@crispynessification Thanks.

[w1llzere]

how would you install a togle kill switch like tom morello?

[gunnerboy773]

Same way dude. But instead of a button you can get a toggle

[Leandrolsgs]

thanks

[jwhambone79]

I liked it. Although maybe some music or somthing...

The drawings were great (although it made 20 gauge wire appear like 3o).

5 stars if were allowed.

Thanks for sharing.

[gunnerboy773]

Thanks dude!

[TerraHuman]

[gunnerboy773]
