On this site I describe the construction of a massive electric guitar. The following features stand out:
No exaggeration: the guitar has sustain without end! It is designed for an aggressive heavy sound with a lot of bang. And it delivers it!

The classic toggle switch circuit has three positions: Neck - neck+bridge - bridge. With a mini switch you can choose between normal magnetic pickups in passive mode and the highest quality acoustic sound.
To ensure that the acoustic sound can also be properly amplified, the jack socket is designed in stereo. This way the normal guitar amplifier can be used for nice distortion sounds and the PA can be supplied with the acoustic signal.
PS: If you plug a piezo bridge into a guitar amp, too many highs come in and it sounds very metallic.
