I bought a Livewire Metal Humbucker which I am trying to have installed.
I read somewhere in the tech tips section that generally, 500K pots should be used for humbuckers but my Livewire Metal came with just 100K and the diagrams that came with the package also says just 100K. Which should I follow?
also, the guitar i bought has a Hum-Single-Hum configuration but with only 1 volume and 1 tone pot. I do not intend to use any other pick-up but the Livewire Metal Humbucker i bought so I intend to cut off the wiring of the other pick-ups. Would it be safe to do this?
What is the best way for me to wire my Livewire Humbucker and kill the 2 other pick-ups that came with the guitar without causing problems such as humming and other similar headaches? Thanks and please respond asap guys. I've got my guitar open already and my soldering iron is already hot. =)
