Since I first posted I was sure I posted a second one regarding its construction and the brass rod that sits inside the tone ring (But I can find it). After playing it for a while and tweaking it here and there, I decided to remove the rod to see if it made any difference to the sound. When reassembling it I found that the hole in the tone ring for the top lag bolt to go through wouldn't line up, and the ring was sitting too low on the rim. Apparently the drilling for the position of the lag bolts was dependant on the brass ring being there. They obviously designed this thing with that rod on mind.
